Anyone know if we will be able to use Cocoa to make iPhone apps?
In the iPhone keynote, Cocoa is listed as one of the technologies
that makes up the "OS X" that runs on the iPhone.
At the same time, however, iPhone is remarked as a "closed" software
system. Third party developers will not be able to write
applications for iPhone without going through Apple. The actual
APIs, therefore, are not available to the general public, but only to
those select few developers that Apple chooses to partner with.
In short, iPhone probably uses some version of Cocoa but it probably
does not use exactly the same public Cocoa API set that is found in
Mac OS X. If you want more information about developing applications
for iPhone you will have to talk to Apple directly and further
speculation in this forum is probably pointless.
