The Haxe Lua Target #5

Closed jdonaldson closed 8 years ago

jdonaldson commented 8 years ago

I'd like to talk about the Lua target I've been working on. It's in pretty good shape, passing all but a few tricky Issue<#>.hx tests. I'm working with Simon to iron out any remaining kinks.

nadako commented 8 years ago

This is awesome! Looking forward for that talk and lua target to become a part of official Haxe!

back2dos commented 8 years ago

Yes please!

jdonaldson commented 8 years ago

Kudos to @Simn and @PeyTy for sorting out the remainder of the failing tests! Now we're going to give it some more love.

PeyTy commented 8 years ago

@jdonaldson You can now make this, like @hughsando did in http://gamehaxe.com/wwx/wwx2015.swf for CPPIA target :yum:

That is awesome!!!

BTW there are some issues with Lua 5.3 new integers, see my e-mail. Also @Simn check that email too, I finally compiled all required libs on Windows :)

We're about to finish the website. Do you mind if we announce your talk on the website ? Can you send us a bio and picture, as well as a title for the talk ?

jdonaldson commented 8 years ago

Hey sure, that's awesome!

bio:

Justin has been a Haxe fan since early 2006. He's a Ph.D. and veteran startup cofounder, Data Scientist, and (recently) new father. However, he still finds time to work on his favorite Haxe related projects. He wishes more Haxe folks were in the Pacific Northwest.

Awesome pic! Do you mind if we edit out the dude with the silly sunglasses? :D

jdonaldson commented 8 years ago

Hey now, I resemble that remark!

JbIPS commented 8 years ago

Talk's on the website, closing.

back2dos commented 8 years ago

@JbIPS If we're doing rehearsals this year, then maybe these issues should be relabeled instead of closed.

JbIPS commented 8 years ago

We'll do rehearsals for sure, but we thought planning it only concerned the speaker and didn't need to stay here.

But maybe you still have some use in mind for these issues?

back2dos commented 8 years ago

Nope just that. You're right, it would probably generate too much noise here.
