Take your coding skills to the next level with this extensive guide to Objective-C, Apple's programming language for developing sophisticated software applications for Mac OS X.
Objective-C is a powerful extension of C, making this book the perfect follow-up to Dave Mark's best-selling Learn C on the Macintosh (Mac OS X Edition). Whether you're an experienced C programmer or you're coming from a different language such as C++ or Java, leading Mac experts Mark Dalrymple and Scott Knaster show you how to harness the powers of Objective-C in your applications!
Edited by acclaimed author Dave Mark and packed with time-saving source code examples, this is the definitive guide to Objective-C for Xcode developers!
Includes:
A complete course on the basics of Objective-C using Apple's free Xcode tools.
An introduction to object-oriented programming.
Comprehensive coverage of Inheritance, Composition, Object Initialization, Categories, Protocols, memory management and organizing source files.
A brief tour of Cocoa's Foundation framework and AppKit.
A helpful "learning curve" guide for non-C developers (Appendix A).
Together with Stephen Kochan's book, this works as an excellent introduction to the world of Objective-C and Cocoa development. It is well written, and organized logically.
