I don't like using things like Qt on the Mac as I like Objective-C so
much. If I need to be cross-platform I write most of the back-end in
'C' then do a very thin GUI layer in Cocoa, then I give it to the
Windows guys to do the Windows front-end in whatever they use and
keep the back-end portable.
I'd love to be able to write once on a Mac and to be able to produce
a Windows, LINUX and UNIX app from that...
Regards, Rob.

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.
