Higher level languages for writing Wearable apps?

Hi,

I'm a long-time developer who started out with C decades ago, but am just now getting started with development for Tizen wearable, having recently bought a Samsung Gear S2 watch.

Is there currently a way to develop for the wearables, with access to the Native APIs, in a higher-level language than C?

I considered investing time/effort into learning web application development for Tizen, but I notice the API access doesn't seem to offer as much. For example, there seems to be no way to do libcurl or lower-level socket networking calls from javascript.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to write Tizen apps in a higher level language such as Lua or Python, but without bloating out and slowing down the application.

I would even suggest that if there were a way to access the full API in higher-level languages than C, we might have a lot more Tizen apps on the market. At present, the market seems to be mostly just watch faces!

Cheers

David

Hi David,

There is an interesting discussion about this on the mailing list

Hi

In one of my project i used C++. I saw, it didn't support full C++ operation. I could use C++ OOP feature like Inheritance, overloading , overriding without any problem.But It showed error in C++ library (string, stl etc.) specific code. May be also you can use python using Cython which is a C extension . As currently  most of the tizen provided API  written in C , So If you want to use any other language except C , you will struggle a lot.

Please  read the EFL founder "Carsten Haitzler" answer from the below post, you will get some idea about future Tizen supported platform from here

So I guess that Rasterman's proposal was ignored during the years? and Tizen APIs still have no (Lua, etc.) bindings?
