This free online converter lets you convert code from Objective_C to Carbon in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | Objective_C | Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | C-based syntax with Smalltalk-style messaging, uses brackets for method calls. | C++-like modern syntax, designed for familiarity to C++ developers, avoids brackets for method calls. |
| Paradigm | Object-oriented, supports dynamic runtime and message passing. | Multi-paradigm, primarily object-oriented and generic programming, with modern language features. |
| Typing | Dynamically and statically typed, supports dynamic typing via id type. | Statically typed, with strong type safety and modern generics. |
| Performance | High performance, close to C, but dynamic features can add overhead. | Aims for performance similar to or better than C++, with modern optimizations. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich ecosystem for Apple platforms (Cocoa, Cocoa Touch), limited outside Apple. | Ecosystem still developing, aims for interoperability with C++ libraries. |
| Community and support | Mature but shrinking community, mostly within Apple development. | Very new, experimental, small but growing community, backed by Google. |
| Learning curve | Steep for those unfamiliar with C or Smalltalk syntax, easier for Apple developers. | Designed for easy adoption by C++ developers, but new concepts may require adjustment. |
