I would like to use an open source library that's written in Java to create a Cocoa desktop application.
Ideally, I would use the Java library as the model, and write my own Objective C controller classes and Cocoa views. Is this possible in Xcode? What options do I have (if any)?
Or, would you recommend rewriting the parts of the Java library I need into Objective C (or C)?
Fyi, I have zero Java experience and I'm fairly new to programming (under 2 years experience). The languages I currently study and use are Ruby and Objective C (and the Cocoa framework).
Thank you in advance for your feedback!
