    <p>I've learned Java (including Android) and am looking to make the transition to programming in Objective-C / Cocoa for Mac OS X, trying to figure out what books or other resources to use. I would like to jump into it as quickly as possible; I'm fine not learning aspects of C that aren't in Objective-C (subjective C??). I have read <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/135112/java-developer-meets-objective-c-on-mac-os">this thread</a> but the OP there already knows C; <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3322513/learning-objective-c-with-a-java-background">this one</a> is helpful but a bit more general than what I'm looking for (I already know that I'd like to jump straight into Objective-C if possible).</p> <p>Many, many people (<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/945600/book-recomendations-for-learning-cocoa-programming">here, for example</a>) recommend Aaron Hillegass's <em>Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X</em> as the Cocoa textbook. I intend to use it. But will it be understandable to me if I only know Java but not Objective-C already? I had thought about first using Stephen Kochan's <em>Programming in Objective-C</em> (also highly recommended) to learn the Objective-C basics, but that book looks like a general intro to programming, where I'd need to sit through a bunch of stuff I already know. Should I try a Java-developer-specific book like <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/1430223693" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this one</a>? If so, will I still need Hillegass in addition, or will it be enough? Alternately, can I just read a few quick online docs that will guide me through the Java / OC differences, and then go straight to Hillegass?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
