Well, kind of. Java creators copied the idea of the interfaces from ObjC
protocols, but in the hurry they forgotten to put the class methods as
part of the interface. Oh, yes, and because they were so busy to produce
buzzwords, they overseen the fact that ObjC allows informal protocols
too (in reality categories with a special purpose) - very handy
technique to define delegation. But in general, they serve the same
purpose.
