Some of the functionality mentioned there (such as type
introspection, class methods and fields, and messaging) is already
possible with Object Pascal today, so would not even need language
extensions (although the implementation would obviously need to be
changed).
Since there is a complete procedural interface to the low level
Objective-C run time, the only reason why it hasn't been
implemented yet is because nobody cared enough for it.
I wasn't saying it couldn't be done, only that it hasn't been done,
which is more important if you're trying to decide what you're going
to use for your next project. ;-)
That may change if no 64 bit Carbon is forthcoming though.
Why would that motivate someone to write an Objective Pascal?
