In ObjectiveC we have the infamous namespace collision problem. I am wondering how this applies to
Objective Pascal.
For example, I have a plugin, written in Pascal, with only one global external symbol, the plugin
entry point
000000000000a6d0 (__TEXT,__text) external _MyPluginEntryPoint
But the plugin uses Cocoa internally, e.g. to declare an NSApplicationDelegate. This ends up in the
plugin code as a non-global symbol, e.g.
000000000006aa80 (__TEXT,__text) non-external (was a private external) -[NSApplicationDelegate
application:openFile:]
And I have another plugin that does the same. So, there are two non-global
symbols like this
000000000006aa80 (__TEXT,__text) non-external (was a private external) -[NSApplicationDelegate
application:openFile:]
Does the namespace collision problem apply now ? or only to symbols that are global external
symbols ? Is this different in Objective Pascal from Objective C ?
