Only Cocoa is. Carbon is dying, too.
Maybe I wrong, but I thought that Java was one of the core frameworks on the Mac. If I remember correctly, earlier Apple stated that they were going to make Java into one of the ways of doing Cocoa programming. Though with the last 2 releases of the OS they seem to be drifting away from that. Regarding Carbon, I think they are looking for a zero carbon footprint :) (couldn't resist!) That aside, I think under the Mac section MacSword should be listed first. I was surprised about BpBible, as I didn't know that could run on the Mac. -- DM _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
