Never encountered any. I doubt it is possible since Obj-C is dynamically typed (binded) language, which means you can pass any kind of msg to any kind of obj and it will compile/run. Either you will receive an "method not found" exception or "nil" as return. It is very close to what Ruby is. Actually both Ruby & ObjC as based on Smalltalk idea.
Now I understand. It is very interesting that Obj-C is based upon something that I actually have an idea of how it works...
Of course there's wxWidgets for example which wraps Cocoa as one of its backends, but the wrapper is C++ & ObjC mixture.
I really don't understand why Obj-C is treated as evil, even it would be part only of Mac platform of Wine and even it is supported by GDB and GCC on any possible platform :/
Need to convince AJ of that. It would be nice to be able to do Mac builds on Linux and vice versa. I don't like the problems that are encountered using mingw32 for the testsuite when building it on Linux.
Once I thought when moving to Mac that its doggy idea to force some Obj-C on Mac, while other part of the World speak C/C++, but now I know that Obj-C is what defined OSX actually and way the whole system works. So wondering who of Obj-C dislikers at Wine HQ really uses Mac and really did any of native apps on Mac.
Don't know. I know that Austin English does use a Mac. I don't know if he builds programs on it, however. I would like to see at least one FOSS project use Obj-C code to support the Mac rather than using c wrappers.
