I've been doing a lot of Objective-C coding the past few months, and have found it surprisingly pleasant, once I got used to the syntax. Maybe I had low usability expectations for a language based on C. :-)
- chc 16y agoIt's not unusable, and overall I actually prefer it to, say, C or Java. But compared to modern languages it has some glaring weaknesses. Also, you have to be careful to distinguish between the framework and the language. Cocoa is an excellent framework that does a great job playing to Objective-C's strengths. It's the language that I'm criticizing here.
