wxOSX/Carbon is a port of wxWidgets for the Macintosh OS platform.
Currently MacOS X 10.4 or higher are supported. wxOSX/Carbon can
be compiled both using Apple's command line developer tools
64-bit architecture since Apple decided not to port its Carbon
API entirely to 64-bit.
+@note Carbon has been deprecated by Apple as of OS X 10.5 and will likely
+be removed entirely in a future OS version. It's recommended you look into
+switching your app over to wxOSX/Cocoa as soon as possible.

wxOSX/Cocoa is another port of wxWidgets for the Macintosh OS
platform. In contrast to wxOSX/Carbon, it uses the Cocoa API
of the wxOSX/Carbon port yet. It is possible to use wxOSX/Cocoa
on 64-bit architectures.
+In order to configure wxWidgets to compile wxOSX/Cocoa you will
+need to type:
+
+@verbatim configure --with-osx_cocoa @endverbatim

+@note There was a previous effort towards a Cocoa port called
wxCocoa, which was implemented totally with Cocoa API unlike the OSX/Cocoa port
which uses OS X C APIs to share code, and while it is no longer being actively
developed, docs for it are available in @c docs/cocoa in the distribution.
