This is true, and very scary. Makes us wonder about sunk cost fallacy. It's annoying but not dreadful to link C++ code into Cocoa via Objective-C. Throw in Swift and future APIs that are Swift-dominated, and it becomes harder. How soon will it be impossible? Our app has 6 or 8 programmer-years of C++ cross-platform business logic. Accounting software is complicated. Rewriting that in another language would be hard work, and tons of testing. More than Mac sales would justify, so it would be time to go Windows-only or just fold.
