Is Adobe planning on support writing ANE with Swift?
Dear Adobe,
AIR is an awesome cross platform solution, I have already published a multi platform product using AIR technology, my product website is https://verylab.com/
Nowadays the hardwares of mobile devices are fairly high spec, even the cheap price devices can handle AIR applications pretty well, it's safe to say that the performance issue of AIR on modern mobile devices is no longer the case, which is great!
The way I see it, the only thing that holds me back is not able to write ANE with Swift. I googled the internet and found the problem is: Swift is a dynamic framework, and AIR ANE only supports static frameworks, so we have to write ANE with Objective-C.
The language grammar between Swift and ActionScript has many commons, which is easy for ActionScript developers to learn and write Swift codes. It's a HUGE let down that AIR ANE does not support Swift : (
Is there any way or any workaround for AIR ANE to support Swift?
If there is a way, is Adobe planning on support it?
