Learn Objective-C for Java Developers (Paperback)

Learn Objective-C for Java Developers will guide experienced Java developers into the world of Objective-C. It will show them how to take their existing language knowledge and design patterns and transfer that experience to Objective-C and the Cocoa runtime library. This is the express train to productivity for every Java developer who has dreamed of developing for Mac OS X or iPhone, but felt that Objective-C was too intimidating. So hop on and enjoy the ride!

• Provides a translation service that turns Java problem-solving skills into Objective-C solutions
• Allows Java developers to leverage their existing experience and quickly launch themselves into a new domain
• Takes the risk out of learning Objective-C

What you'll learn

• Apply Java experience to Objective-C and Cocoa
• Use elegant alternatives that increase productivity
• Maximize the powerfully unique constructs of Objective-C, like class clusters
• Think like an object-oriented C programmer to create more reusable code
• Use all of the things in Java and Objective-C that are actually quite similar, like MVC design patterns
