Here's a java based text editor that has much of the functionality of BBEdit- ftp, syntax highlighting, perhaps more: http://jedit.sourceforge.net/ It has syntax highlighting for…

ok... I feel silly now, but have been unable to successfully execute a fairly simple Bourne Shell script and am frustrated. Anyway, the script reports "Bourne shell script text"…

oops... that was a typo... #!/bin/sh is the first line. What paths should I look for? Eric

heh... just kidding. turns out one of the foolders it needed wasn't in the right place Thanks for the suggestion! eric

I've tried to compile the X11-based tgif application on PB. Compile it did, but I couldn't link the file because the libraries libc and libm were missing (I didn't have a problem w…

Ok, I found it myself, at http://publicsource.apple.com I was able to compile libm, but there are errors with libc (some types are redefined). Help... PS: Sorry for posting th…

I would like to begin coding with Cocoa...But i have a question, what is the best choice for making a little database ? I mean free because it's for a freeware... Is there builtin…

Depends on what your needs are but MySQL has been successfully compiled and I hvae also compiled BerkelyDB (sleepycat.com)

For bulleting boards and that sort of app, MySQL is probably the best choice. It is very fast even at large volumes, robust (won't easily puke on you) and has good security. But th…

Thanx, but I would like to make a CD/DVD list manager software so the database should be easy to install and set up on a client mac... I would like to do the same as I can do with…

Yes, REALbasic has a built-in Database thing in the Professional version. There is no such thing in the Cocoa classes, you're going to have to look somewhere else to find one. Ther…

Sounds like a real database would be an overkill. It'll probably be easier to manage your data internally...

well, a flat text file would probably be your best bet then..

When I do "c++ virtfunc.cpp" I get: Quote: In file included from /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/libio.h:30, from /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/streambuf.h:36, from /…

Can you post a copy of the file? I could give it a shot. What system calls are you making. It sounds like you might need to link with the system framework or something.

Well, I actually don't have the files it's referring to. I don't even have a /sys/ directory within that g++ directory. So for some reason I'm missing files. This is very strange i…

I know what he meant. What I'm saying is that the error I'm getting makes sense... those header files it's searching for don't exist -- I had a problem installing Fink (the pkg do…

Based on an idea that someone emailed me the other day, as well as thread that was started in the Suggestions/Comments forum, I've been thinking about creating an Apple Developer C…

Being a select developer, I'd think that it would be very cool. However, there's no possibility to check for NDA-email addresses I know of. Maybe you should talk about it with some…

While I think your idea is good and such a forum is needed, I doubt Apple will permit it to exist here. Allowing "secret" company information to exist on someone else's server is …

I'm having trouble getting the CodeWarrior MetroNubX debugger to execute under 4K29. When launched, for a fraction of second the Dock makes space for MetroNubX's icon, but then it…
