Well, insofar as Cocoa is the de-facto standard library for
Objective-C (unless you're David Stes), I'd expect any book about
Objective-C to cover at least the basics of Cocoa as well.
That's where most of the interesting bits would be, anyway -
there's really not *that* much to the language itself.
Or you could read the book he's already written: http://
www.amazon.com/Object-oriented-Programming-Brad-Cox/dp/0201103931/
sr=11-1/qid=1171264556/ref=sr_11_1/002-8639935-4094432
That one's pretty far outdated, isn't it? It predates OpenStep, so
it wouldn't cover later language additions like categories or
protocols. And if it gets into library issues at all, it's be
talking about the ICPak libraries, not Foundation & AppKit.
It looks like a fascinating look into the history of Objective-C,
just not very practical for day-to-day use. I might just order it
for curiosity's sake - it looks like Amazon has some used copies
for less than a buck, so why not?
I think perhaps you missed my nit-picking, poor attempt at humor
and education. Mainly that Brad Cox is responsible for Objective-C
not Cocoa (causation aside).
LOL, yeah, I did. I ordered the book though. :-)
