Genetic Programming (GP) implementation in objective-c?

Question

I am looking for an open source GP implementation in objective-c. I found some C++ implementation which I can embed in my obj-c project but I was wondering if there's a native obj-c implementation of GP out there.

Thanks

I would recommend what the people have said in the comments,

Try to find a robust C++ implementation, if you want, you can then use Objective-C++ (basically an Objective-C file with a .mm extension instead of .m) to use this files in your project.

Some popular GP libraries in C++ are :

http://gaul.sourceforge.net/ (C/C++ Library

I was also able to find a genetic programming example in Objective-C that you could look:

PS: If you're really interested in Scientific Programming under Mac OS X, you should definitely take a look at Cocoa For Scientists, there's always the option of DIY...
