Haxe Forum > Creating a target

• frank salingen Jul 20 at 13:14

  Hi,

  Besides 'use the force, read the source' is there any documentation on how to make a target for Haxe? I created targets for other similar systems and that was not so hard, however seeing the time it took to get the C#/Java targets to work it seems far more complicated here? I would be interested in doing something like that anyway though.

  Thanks

  Useful pages can be found from the community page under contribute.

  Caue work on Java/c# may make new targets much easier it is worth contacting the haxe google group mailing list ( haxelang ). I am aware that one person was interested in working on Python I have no idea if he has taken it further, so it is worth declaring and interest in developing a particular target so that you don't end up repeating others efforts, I think Python would be a very useful target but I am sure there are many good possible ones such as Perl or Ruby, or maybe more low level.
