Is there a way to get Widget Candy working with Gideros?

I appended this quesion onto the end of a long thread, but really it probably needs its own thread. Does anyone know if it is ossible to get the Candy series working with Gideros? I have been using Corona but just can't see myself buying their product. The major draw to me was the Candy add ons from X-Pressive. However, that is about it. Everytime I have needed help, no one has jumped in. I would really like to move away from them.

Obviously out of the box they won't (not sure about @OzApps compatibility layer), but IIRC the Candy add on's are source based so you could always try porting them yourself, or alternatively get in contact with X-Pressive and see if they're interested in doing a Gideros port themselves - the way a lot of Corona developers seem to be jumping ship it might be a good deal for them.

Particle Candy already implemented and officially working. And all candy libraries will be implemented. Look at the official email from them;


Hi,
please excuse the delayed replay, we’ve been out of the office last week. Yes, we definately plan to port Widget Candy to Gideros mobile (we actually started working on it but there is no exact release schedule yet). We are very pleased with Gideros and will therefore deliver Gideros ports for all future Candy libraries as well.

Kind Regards,
Mike Dogan
