Following the mothership's lead, Metrowerks released an patch to a select few. And, no, I'm not talking about 6.1...

Great isn't it! Apple and Metrowerks take care of the important people, and leave the little guys to wait patiently in the dark. Ho hum, I might just brush up on my MS Visual Stu…

I don't want to use NSDocument. I don't like it. I have figured out how to lead nib files and I have been able to make the objects in them release themselves when necessary but the…

I think NSDocument is just fine -- I'd still highly recommend it if you're really doing a multi-document app. If you just have a single window, then it doesn't make sense -- use a…

Okay I get it now. I was unsure about the whole file's owner thing. BTW, say I have one thing in a nib file and I want to make an arbitrary number of instances of it and I want to …

Oh BTW, every time that I loaded the nib it called the awakeFromNib method in my controller class. I got around problems with that by writing it like this: - (void)awakeFromNib { …

Hey Dalgo, Thanks for linking to that macosx-dev article on loading nibs. Extremely helpful stuff. [This message has been edited by tie (edited 04-29-2001).]

Anyone up for a game of Mad Nibs? Get it?? Mad nibs!? Ha... Ha.

Okay, so I found this very basic regular math expression parser, and it works great!... except that if you enter an expression long enough (about 25 characters in length) it dies. …

Excellent. Thank you so much! My C knowledge just grew F-bacher

I'd like to make a very simple command-line tool that can: 1. Set/read the monitor brightness (the actual lamp, not a ColorSync thing) 2. Set/read the system volume -- Nevermind, f…

See either CoreGraphics.framework or IOKit.framework, methinks.

Sorry, other than a cryptically named constant, all my best grepping and handreading through those frameworks and others hasn't turned up an obvious API for monitor brightness. An…

Woah, blast from the past. Incidentally, I ended up just setting the monitor gamma to zero, which turns the screen black, without actually changing the monitor brightness. This t…

Well I really want to adjust brightness using software, as I try to write an application that sets the brightness when the battery status change. Yes it is a recovered topic, I di…

Hello, everyone! I'm a very experienced C++ programmer, but new to Cocoa and Obj-C. I love what I see so far, just have some problems I'm hoping someone can help me with 1) Whe…

1) - is for instance methods, + for class methods (called "static" in C++ and Java) 2) I had problems making colors, too. colorWithDeviceRed ended up working, though. 3) Don't…

2) I can't seem to create RGB colors with NSColor. Do I use colorWithDeviceRed? or colorWithCalibratedRed? "Device" colors are are colors which will always use those values, on an…
