This was posted today on TheServerSide -- anyone have any
comments? As a
Java developer, I'm curious if Apple is trying to ween Mac app
developers
from Java and steer them toward Cocoa development
I might mention that the JNIDirect package I use includes some of the
functionality that Cocoa/Java gave you except based on compiled on-
the-fly JNI.
Much less complete than what Apple distributed, or of course as of
10.4 still distributes, but extensible. 57 java sources supported by
6 struct wrappers currently off of the ns package so not completely
trivial current support but that is a long ways from complete support.
Code generator functionality along the lines of the old-school
JDirect stuff could be developed for some of it possibly.
Other things could be done with it as a project as well if interest
were there.
What gets worked on and to what extent depends on areas people
indicate are of real or imagined interest or they just depend on my
own occasionally wandering interests. If you have any curiosity let
me know.
