Just curious if anyone has ever used an Objective-C back end on
Windows with a native Windows GUI? Is there Objective-C compiler
support on Windows? You could either wrap C based Windows calls in
Objective C, or write controller code in C that could talk to both the
Windows GUI objects and the Objective-C model objects.
Yes, NeXT did this when they created OpenStep Enterprise 4.x for
Windows. The UI code itself was all written in MS' GDI API, and was
completely transparent to the programmer writing the code..he just
created his interface as usual in InterfaceBuilder, used his objc
backend code, and everything else happened automagically. This is what
I'd like to see GNUstep support.
Probably not practical, but just curious if anyone else has thought
about this.
It's been done since the early days of Windows 95.
Cheers,
Alex Perez
