RE: [Jython-users] Cocoa from Jython on MacOSX

[Michael R. <ro...@ct...>]

Hi Steve,

just for reference, I recently spent an evening playing with the Cocoa Java 
classes from the Jython interpreter. It all worked, except that it soon 
became apparent how much work Interface Builder actually does behind the 
scenes. I'm no Cocoa expert, but it looked as if there are a nontrivial 
amount of bookkeeping type of classes required in a Cocoa app that IB takes 
care of automatically and it isn't at all obvious to me what calls to make 
in the interpreter.

On the other hand, the experience was positive enough to start thinking 
about how to use Jython with IB.

best

Michael
