Objective-C to Java cross compiler
- by mvid
It is clear that cross compilers will not be allowed by the Apple App Store, so a developer will need to be familiar with Objective-C to create applications for the iPhone.
I was wondering, is there a cross compiler that will take Objective-C application code and rebuild it into a similar Java application that can be packaged for Android? That way, a developer could still learn just one language (obj-c) but put out applications on many devices.
I understand that the Java port would be less optimal than a natively coded application, but could conceivably save a developer some time.
