              Programming Mac OS X: Objective-C and Cocoa

                       Jonathan 'Wolf' Rentzsch

                Tuesday April 27th 2004 at 7:00-9:00pm
                  College of DuPage Bldg OCC Rm 128 B

Abstract
--------
Cocoa is Mac OS X's built-in object-oriented application framework.
Written in Objective-C, it is perhaps the most mature and advanced
desktop application framework in existence.  You can think of it as
OpenStep: The Next Generation.  Cocoa isn't magic and Objective-C
isn't a super-language.  Far from it.  Together, we'll step through an
introduction of Objective-C, the language, highlighting its pros and
cons.  For the second part, we'll explore the Cocoa itself, both from
the framework level and the toolkit level (Xcode and Interface Builder).
