Cocoa Tutorial for Java Programmers
This document introduces the Cocoa application environment using the Java language and teaches you how to leverage Apple’s development tools to build robust, object-oriented applications. Cocoa provides the best way to build modern, multimedia-rich, object-oriented applications for consumers and enterprise customers alike. This document assumes you are familiar with Java programming but does not assume you have previous experience with Cocoa or Xcode Tools.
This document is intended for Java programmers interested in developing Cocoa applications. Keep in mind, however, that Java is not Cocoa’s native language. To develop Cocoa applications that you intend to release to end users, you must use Objective-C. No Java interfaces for new Cocoa features will be added to Mac OS X versions after 10.4. Therefore, features added to Cocoa in subsequent versions Mac OS X will not be available to Cocoa applications developed using Java.
