I’ve been coding on C++/Linux for 10+ years.
I am switching to do Mac development.
My development involves GUI components.
Is my only choice to learn Cocoa/Objective-C, or is there a way to wrap Cocoa and use it from C++ land?
Thanks!

Yes, you need to learn Objective-C. Besides, you wouldn’t gain much if you didn’t need to. It’s not the language that’s hard to learn but the Cocoa framework (not because it’s inherently hard but because it’s so huge).
