I'm seriously contemplating porting some of my QuickTime code to Cocoa and I
have to decide whether it's worth while to try to bring along the Windows
support. I've really been all over the web and I still don't have a clear
picture of the status of Objective C on Windows. I understand that GnuStep
requires CygWin and is not well developed but the code I have uses the QT
Media layer for all its UI stuff so I don't need anything like AppKit. What
I do need is a decent ObjC compiler that is link compatible with either MS
VC++ or CodeWarrior for Windows.
I am using WebObjects 4.5 for native Windows Objective-C development. The
development environment and compiler are the best for Objective-C. The BIG
problem is that you have to develop your own runtime and libraries.
I looked at GNUStep and decided to start from scratch myself.
Hope this helps,
Chris
