Thanks for the download info. Again, I know this is pretty basic stuff, but could someone offer some help as to where I should put the javax.servlet stuff I downloaded from Sun so …

Hey, does anyone know how to send a datagram packet to the broadcast address on OSXb? The following code runs fine on Solaris, Linux, Windows, and OS 9, but results in a "java.io.…

Weird, this isn't just a java bug. I tried the same thing with perl and got a similar error. I am trying to do a udp broadcast for server discovery. Any ideas? -Mike --------- …

Well, apparently this is a know bug with the JVM. Not sure why it did not work from perl though. -Mike

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

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…

How frienly if the OS right off the bat for sprites, sound and stuff. I havn't heard much about the equivalent of sprockets on X. Also, it seems to be easier usin ObjC (cocoa).

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..

While in depth programming books comes to light, it would be great to have source code archive right in this website. So that we can post complete projects for educational purpo…

hi, i've some questions about some error msg's i got when i tried to compile my java-project. what does the following error msg's say? 1. don't know how to make /Volumes/OSX/C…

I'm programming a simple game of Connect Four for my OOD class (which is due in a couple of days), and would like to make it my first Obj-C program. The main question I have is si…

Try using tiff files. Make one big image for the board, including partially transparent shadows (love that alpha channel) and others for the pieces.

Right, but how do I do that? It's mainly the coding aspects of it that I don't know. Thanks for your reply, though. I'm just a little stressed with the deadline for this thing.…
