Can anyone speak to whether or not LiveCode can produce a standalone application that can be run on GAE?

What I can't find is information on what language(s) LiveCode actually compiles its standalone applications into, and therefore I can't figure out whether or not a LiveCode-produced application will run on GAE.

LiveCode generates apps into C++/Objective C, with some Java for Android-focused releases.

This recent forum post http://ftp.runrev.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=73488&sid=ef21ce2461d9f0633d80e2146f30b2a4#p73488 states that LiveCode-produced apps cannot run on Google App Engine: "Currently, there is no LiveCode engine available for Google App... You (or someone else) would have to write a LiveCode runtime environment for GAE." However you could rent a machine from Google Compute Engine ( https://cloud.google.com/products/compute-engine ) and run any application you want from there.
