does anybody in here know about objective C? does anyone good in objective C?

hello?

[MrHutch]

I know some Objective-C. What's up?

A better forum for this sort of thing would be the programming forums over at MacRumors. A lot of Obj-C guys there.

It is weird but it's pretty elegant once you get going with it.

It's the standard language where I work. The object model is much more rigorous* and lighter (you can see the SmallTalk in it) than C++; it feels like a minimalist OO C, which of course is what it is.

_{* By which I think I mean easier to express formally and far harder to play clever games with, which is what I always do with C++, mainly just because I can :p}

[MrHutch]

You work in a Mac-related field, Moschops?

No. In terms of desktop OS, we target Win and *nix (generally with the same source but compiled separately on each platform). We have never targeted any Apple OS.
