Don't write cross-platform code(2010)
- zedpm 13y agoEh, I'm just finishing a summer of porting our Windows product to Mac, and a fair bit of the code is shared between the two platforms. A decent portion of the code is C++, which took very little massaging to work on both platforms. The other piece of the Windows product is written in C#, and I spent quite a bit of effort in getting things to work under Mono. Looking back I'm glad I didn't try to rewrite things in Objective-C. For one thing, nobody in our company has any Obj-C experience, and after looking at it, nobody had any interest in picking it up. C, C++, Java, Python, Perl, VB(A), javascript, php, various shells: sure, we all either know the language or are willing to learn. Obj-C? Blech.
