I have been programming a lot of C++ and I was interested in starting to program Objective-C. However, I only have a PC that has Windows and Linux on it. Is it possible for me to program Objective-C without a Mac? Or is it mandatory to buy one?

@danh: That question is about XCode. You don't need XCode to program in Objective-C. – Keith Thompson Apr 07 '13 at 18:55

1@DanZimm: It's a duplicate question, but I see no indication that the poster is a troll. The 1-point reputation implies that the OP likely isn't familiar enough with the site to know that it's a duplicate. – Keith Thompson Apr 07 '13 at 18:57

Originally it had "objectiff c" in the question and "objective-c" in the tag... seemed a bit fishy to me – DanZimm Apr 07 '13 at 18:59

If you compile Objective-c under Linux or whatever you'll basically be learning the syntax of Objective-c, but you won't be learning how to really do anything useful with the iPhone or OSX.
Just buy a Mac.
