hmm.
did i get that right that you can make native cocoa apps out of java sourcecode or can you just implement some elements of the cocoa api into a java app (which would then be osx only, right??). just wonderin because native cocoa app would be faster than the java app.
i'm fairly new to programming so please help me
<br>thx

Yes, it is possible to write Cocoa apps in java. This might make it easy for you to provide a fast, native interface for your java application on OS X (yes, it will of course run only on OS X because the Cocoa libraries are OS X only).

Using Cocoa for the GUI would indeed be a *LOT* faster than swing.
