Hello all,
I am looking to learn to write software for Mac OS X. I would like some
advice and guidance on what framework to run with. Way back in 1991-3,
I wrote Mac code in MacApp using MPW. I have since been writing
object-oriented telecom code for UNIX/POSIX in C++. I've gone through
the tutorials for Xcode 1.5 with Carbon and cocoa/objC. I can see that
the cocoa framework saves a lot of coding over Carbon, which looks more
like the old toolbox stuff. I really don't want to go down rant road,
but I am put off by the objectionable-C syntax because, to my C/C++
trained eyes, many things seems like odd ways to define things.
Can anyone suggest a good route for me? Would I have a shorter
learning curve with cocoa/Java? Would CodeWarrior/PowerPlant be a
better choice because of my C/C++ background? Personal experience or
even just pointers to existing web pages would be great.
Thanks,
Scott
PS: Why did Apple yank the developer discussions off the
Support-->Discussions web page? It seemed like an easier format to work
with.
