And yes, the whole deal with header files can be a PITA at first, if

one of the few things Java got right, IMHO.
Quite the opposite, I'd say. In my opinion, headers are just sort of
formalized API documentation, and work excellently for me that way (and
"for me" here means both working as part of and leading teams which
made projects up to almost a million ObjC lines).
Actually, I do lack this in Java: unless I bother to prepare a real
documentation (which is, for plain internal things normally worth just
a one-line comment, pretty superfluous), there is nothing in Java which
could provide anything comparable to the quick reference to the
semi-forgotten API which headers very nicely do in (Obj)C.
Agreeably, this may well be a matter of taste, so please consider it
just my tuppence worth ;)
