[MacRuby-devel] implementation of symbols

[Linan Wang]

Hi,
I read a little bit source codes and found out that Symbol is  
implemented on top of NSString. My question is if it's a better choice  
to use SEL as the basis when objc is available? objc runtime takes  
care of the registration and management. I guess using NSString class  
is a decision with good reasons, could anybody please shine some  
lights on it? Thanks
Best wishes
Linan
