easy to afford. The topics covered were as follows:
How to deal in a more efficient way with XML files
How the Reflection API is structured
What RTTI is and how to use it in haXe
How to Serialize/Unserialize objects
Platform independent and dependent haXe Magic
In the next chapter, you learn how to build desktop applications using Neko. Neko can be used not only

Desktop Applications
with Neko
As you ??™ ve seen previously, the Neko Virtual Machine provides great flexibility for the development
of applications for execution across the Internet, or with the use of a command window. However,
the level of flexibility does not stop there. With the help of external libraries and tools, the Neko
virtual machine can be used to produce highly portable and incredibly powerful desktop
applications that can compete against any developed with a higher level language.
