First, let me say that I have enjoyed the Kevin Hoffman's .Net Addicts Blog posts comparing Cocoa and Objective-C to .Net and C#. I personally think C# is a great language and I appreciate .Net as well. There are many programming tasks which are easier and simpler with the aid of dynamic language features. There are many programming tasks that are harder to mess up when using compile and link time checking. No one tool is the best solution for every problem. There is a nice summary of Kevin Hoffmans presentation at WWDC 2007 here: http://www.roughlydrafted.com/RD/RDM.Tech.Q2.07/985EEF52-D2EC-4CEB-BA8A-33D9C7A27F22.html I love this analysis - Purpose-Driven Development Environments vs. Capability-Driven Development Environments: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/purpose_vs_capability.htm Here is a nice explanation of Cocoa Delegates from a .Net perspective: http://dotnet.sys-con.com/read/375743.htm This is a nice comparison of run-time instantiation and dynamic messaging: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/instantiate_runtime.htm Core Data from a .Net perspective: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/coredatasimple.htm Cocoa distributed objects from a .Net perspective: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/do_bonjour_pbcup.htm The MVC pattern in .Net compared to Cocoa: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/exploring_the_mvc_pattern_in_wpf.htm Observations about xcode and Visual Studio: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/ide_greenerpastures.htm Does Objective-C need namespaces?: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/objc_namespaces.htm Categories from a .Net perspectice: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/batch_observing_an_entire_array_of_objects_in_cocoa_or__ho.htm NSUndoManager from a .Net perspective: http://dotnetaddict.dotnetdevelopersjournal.com/nsundomanager.htm _______________________________________________
