Is there an equivalent mechanism in Cocoa programming for the COM
structure in windows.

What do you want to use this structure for ? In other words, why do you
want to use a COM-like structure instead of some other existing structure ?

Hi,

generally, Cocoa's Objective C objects contain enough provisions to do
the things one would do with COM on most other platforms. There's also
CFPlugin for those other cases.

Without knowing what part of COM you're actually trying to use, and
whether you have to work with several languages, I can't really make a
good suggestion.

Cheers,
