This free online converter lets you convert code from Carbon to Objective_C in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Carbon | Objective_C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Modern, C++-inspired, aims for readability and simplicity, designed to be familiar to C++ developers. | Superset of C, uses Smalltalk-style messaging syntax, verbose and unique compared to most modern languages. |
Paradigm | Multi-paradigm, primarily supports object-oriented and generic programming, designed as a successor to C++. | Object-oriented, supports procedural programming, based on C with added Smalltalk-style object orientation. |
Typing | Statically typed, with strong type safety and modern type inference features. | Statically typed, but with dynamic runtime features and less strict type safety compared to modern languages. |
Performance | Aims for performance comparable to or better than C++, suitable for systems programming. | High performance, close to C, but some overhead due to dynamic messaging and runtime features. |
Libraries and frameworks | Currently limited, as the language is in early development; aims for interoperability with C++ libraries. | Rich ecosystem, especially for Apple platforms (Cocoa, Cocoa Touch), but less cross-platform support. |
Community and support | Emerging community, mainly experimental and research-focused, limited support and resources. | Established community, strong support for Apple development, but declining in favor of Swift. |
Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for those unfamiliar with C++ concepts; still evolving. | Steep, due to unique syntax and concepts, but well-documented for Apple development. |
