Cross-platform?

  • Thread-topic: Cross-platform?

Curious about how people are dealing with cross-platform issues.
Cocoa on Mac to ? on Windows, ? on Linux.

If it was a carbon app all/most code would be in C or C++ and UI could be
dealt with in at least somewhat similar fashion between platforms.  Seems to
be one of the potential trade-offs of Cocoa vs Carbon that Apple doesn't
address much.

I know I can code in C or C++ within Cocoa as well but how are most real
Cocoa developers dealing with this and the UI porting issues?  Or are most
Cocoa developed apps staying Mac only?

Is the potential faster/easier coding in Cocoa(is it?) offset by added time
and work to port to other platforms?

Thanks.
