I am a newbie to the cocoa world (PC -> Mac switcher). I have a fair amount of experience coding in C and C++ and I am just getting into Obj C now. Right now I am trying to learn the language idioms and patterns in the Obj C world, specifically, when do you find yourself mixing C++ code with your Obj C code in your project? How often do you do that? What's the pros and cons of doing that?
I tend to use a lot of C++ for performance, features and portability reasons. The parts of Objective-C I need are then most of the time in .mm files which often contain a C++ class using Objective-C functionality.
New projects that are not performance-critical and are not likely to get ported anywhere else except OS X, those I tend to start in Objective-C.
