This sounds unlikely to > me... Safe... I think so. But type safe?! At least as typesafe as a C-system can be. ;-) I will explore this in more detail in the next weeks. I than may say something here in the list, if it matches the needs of the discussions then (or when I may started to write some code to marriage Objcetive-C and OCaml (for using OCaml on Cocoa). IMHO here are some other people on the list who has explored ObjC in more detail. I will do that during the next few weeks. Ciao, Oliver
