I don't know if it is dead or not but I am sure it does not include the cocoa framework. IIRC GNUStep has application kit and foundation kit and other framework for UI but I am positive it is not cocoa.
It always had great potential but unless the client has the gnustep stuff installed, your app won't run. Like Mac OS X, GNUStep depends on some bits on the destination machine.
(I may be wrong on this, it has been so many years...)
- prg318 14y agoI don't see why a GNUstep application couldn't statically link the GNUstep libraries and include them in the application distribution.
- chc 14y agoCocoa is just an umbrella framework for Foundation, AppKit and Core Data. It has nothing of its own. Literally, this is the entirety of Cocoa.h: #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> #import <AppKit/AppKit.h> #import <CoreData/CoreData.h>
