I have to use a Java API for a project, but since I’m not a fan of Java UIs and I have a Mac, I want to build a native Cocoa application around the Java code. I know Xcode used to provide direct support for this sort of thing, but since it no longer does, what’s the best way to do this?
If it matters, I have Xcode 3.2.5 under Mac OS 10.6.8.
According to this Apple tech note it should be possible to launch a JVM from within your native Mac application. This article was originally written in 2006 and a lot has changed since then with Apple’s support for Java. However, it does look like the article was updated this year so perhaps it is still supported in current versions of the OS? I can’t vouch for it but it does seem like its worth a try.
