[Adium-devl] including C code to ObjC?

[Graham Booker]

In all honesty, there is not too much need to "convert" it to Obj-C.   
Obj-C is a superset of C, which means that it can compile ANSI C code  
along with the Obj-C extensions.

Likely the best thing to do is write a wrapper or glue code to bridge  
between your library and the rest of Adium.  This code will make Obj- 
C calls from c functions, and vice-versa.  Essentially replacing the  
equivalent glue code that you made for gaim.

I think this will minimize your work considerably, unless you really  
want to rewrite it.
