Ignorance is bliss, I guess. In fact, it is a major fork: in many ways
the biggest yet. Codewarrior was always the professional's tool. It
facilitated the move from 68K to PPC and the move from Classic to OSX.
What will take its place for the move to Intel? XCode? Don't make me
laugh. I have nothing against XCode per se, but there is no migration
path from Codewarrior that I've seen. And no migration path to XCode
means no migration path at all. It's a new day. I won't blame any
company or developer that writes off its Mac side as not worth the cost
of the journey. I may well end up as one of them.
Actually, I have something against XCode. It's utterly proprietary. Each
version seems to be tied to a version of OSX. So, for example, to use
the latest XCode you also have to use the latest OSX version. Perhaps I
am mistaken in this. I haven't played with it much. I like CW better as
a development environment, too, but that's probably because I know it.
