Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for communicating between two programming languages on a client device. Commands in a high-level language are encoded as character string containing a series of numbers separated by delimiters, with each component of the command encoded as a different number. The encoded character strings are passed to compiled code that runs natively on the client device, and the native code decodes the character strings into corresponding native commands and executes the native commands. This communication protocol allows applications written in high-level code to perform functions that are typically set aside for native code, such as communicating with web servers and modifying files saved in memory. High-level code may also be transferred to client devices without being subjected to the restrictions that some operating systems place on the transfer for application binaries, which allows application developers to automatically send application updates to users.
