It's special in that it's the one Apple has said they encourage developers to use. That's a clue that at some point Carbon will be deprecated just as Cocoa for Java has been.
Apple employees at carbon developer list claims that tthis is not true - that Carbon is well, is maintained and there are no plans to discontinue it in the future. We do all development in Carbon, so i do not know enough about Cocoa to compare the environments, but there are a lot of new stuff in Carbon and it does not seem like being before its depreciation. Maybe, as few big third party developers moved to Cocoa, Apple changed their plans and decided to put enough resources behind Carbon support. If this is true, moving RB to Cocoa (RB itself, not its framework, it would be interesting to have access to Cocoa classes from RB (cross-platform?), but this is not what people here have in mind) may be unnecessary loss of time and resources. -- Peter Bozek _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
