Hi
I was reading in the Java Dev List about Cocoa-Java development. Some
people where very harsh on Java, while others on Obj-C. I don't know
Obj-C (I have 2 years experience in Java) but I like to know the
differences so I can make a balanced decision about the primary language
I am going to use for OS X dev. I like the idea of Cocoa-Java though
(because I have already Java experience).
- is Obj-C a better OO language than Java?
- which language is more powerful?
- which language is faster to develop? (Java, because of less debugging
with memory leaks???)
- what are the special down sides of Java and Obj-C?
- what are the main pitfalls in accessing the Cocoa framework from Java
(thus to make a Cocoa-Java Application)?
Thanks in advance for your response!
