Hi,
I have been following this rant. I am familiar with COM. I had an
"Advanced Visual Basic" course. I think you really need to clarify
what you want to do on your Mac before you start expecting answers of
code implementation. Or, you cannot expect the individual programmers
on this list to conclude an implementation for a design object like ->
"Can I do the same thing on a Mac that I can do on my toaster". Your
going to get an unreliable set on answers that are guesses. You need to
specify what you are trying to do. Also, one would conclude the
mention of Visual Basic being the King and Java being the Queen (I
think someone wrote this?) as some pornographic marketing plan,
further causing unreliable answers on a list striving for further
understanding an enormous catalog of code called Cocoa.

smart if inelegant tools. Please don't get me wrong, I love my Mac,
but
there are paradigm shifts in the development methodology that are
painful,
and that's coming from someone who is comfortable with both Unix and
IPC, as
well as doing low level Win32 stuff. I can do all of the remoting in
C++
too, but I don't see any clear documentation of how to take the COM
concepts
and apply them here. The closest I've found is to forego a native
method
and use CORBA with all of it's overhead, or build a Cocoa Java layer
and use
the Java remoting tools.
