I hope a carbon question is ok here.
Better to ask on the Carbon developer list hosted by Apple.
I was told that carbon is not and will not ever be 64 bit
compatible? It's sounds like it is one it's way to becoming
deprecated.
Depends on what you mean by Carbon. A lot of what is considered Carbon
is 64b capable but not all of it. Apples apparent (and general stated)
focus is exposing new APIs via Objective-C (or pure C as makes sense).
Has apple completely abandoned C++ for Carbon (Obj-C)?
What do you mean by the above? You can use C++ with Carbon. You can
use C++ (Objective-C++) with Cocoa.
What does that do for portability if you are writing apps for linux,
mac and windows?
IMHO nothing.... I write C++ based applications using Objective-C++ to
bridge into a native Objective-C / Cocoa based UI.
