  • Thread-topic: swift and objective-c

And why go from a non-standard language that is locked to the Apple platform to another locked and non-standard language?

(Yes, I know there are some open source projects on other platforms. I'm talking about common usage.)

I don't like C# either, and for the same reason.

Please give us some real support for a good common language across multiple platforms.

At yesterday’s WWDC, a speaker introduced the Swift language by saying. “Wouldn’t it be nice if we could get rid of the C?”

Instant panic!!

Does anyone know, for real, if Apple intends to stop supporting C and C++?  That’s what it sounded like.  They already do not support Fortran even though there is a *lot* of Fortran code out there, even fairly new code like MultiNest.

Please say it isn’t so.  Not all of us consider “power users” to be just those who create feature-length cartoons.  Many are scientists and engineers.

Thanks.
