Scratch Project Code Question
Is there actual JAVA code created when you make a project with Scratch's blocks
and if so, how do I access the JAVA code created by my project?
... or does that only occur when the project is uploaded?
Is there a way to access the JAVA code created by the specific project after it
has been uploaded?
Or does JAVA code never actually get created by the Scratch projects and some other method is used? Some sort of script? ... if so, how do I access that?

Re: Scratch Project Code Question
The Scratch code is written in Squeak. It translates blocks to Squeak. When you upload, it is translated to Java (I think). This is a really old post, I hope you're still on.

Re: Scratch Project Code Question
The blocks aren't ever converted to anything. Basically Scratch (the program) and the Java Player read the saved file (with the blocks in it) and plays those blocks.
No "translating" is ever done except when the Scratch project is saved and loaded. 
Edit: Also, yes, this is probably a topic that is way too old for the original poster to be on anymore.
