Perhaps I am missing what ObjC++ is supposed to give us... two different
ways of doing objects?
Is C++ faster than ObjC?
Okay, this is my last in the war. From now on I'm a C.O. (cocoa-only).
Cheers,
Lloyd

I agree with you 100%. I'm comfortable with Objective-C the way it is.
After using it for a while I prefer it over Java and C++. I never
really got into object oriented C++ because after years of Java it just
doesn't look appealing. I too feel like I'm in the minority in not
being excited about ObjC++ coming to Mac OS X. I'm afraid it will force
me to deal with four languages on a regular basis in Cocoa
development(Objective-C,Java,C,C++), and I don't really want that level
of complexity when I'm working on projects with other people.
Some things are better best forgotten, that's the way I feel about my
experiences with C++.

As I understand it, Objective-C++ allows you to mix ObjC and C++ code
together, the same way you can currently mix ObjC and C. It will not
permit the use of C++ objects as ObjC objects or vice versa but it
simplify exchanges between the two types of objects. So I don't think
that C++ will ever be a language of choice for Cocoa.
