Hi Everyone, I am new to iPhone programming and have a MacBook running Leopard with XCode 3.1.2. I want to use CoreData to read and write to plists, but I read on http://tapity.com/iphone-app-development/readwrite-data-on-the-iphone-property-lists-sqlite-or-core-data/ that CoreData is only available on iPhone OS 3.0. Right now, I am dev...
I cannot get this crazy dependency to work and please don't tell me to go to Snow Leopard because I have a PPC. I have oniguruma, textpow, ultraviolet all installed. I'm using rvm which is probably the problem. Not that rvm is bad it's just that I don't know how to get the paths correct. When I startup a rails app the error I'm getting...
I am trying to install Oracle XE 10.2 on my Mac Leopard. However, it doesn't go without a lot of fuzz. Thankfully I have this tutorial at my disposal: http://bit.ly/a4rc4O The only pain I am left with is the following command that fails (from the cfgtoollogs/configToolAllCommands). /Users/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/netca /o...
Why is there so many Pythons installed in /usr/bin for my Snow Leopard? What decides which one is the System Python? When I simply type "python" it is 2.6.1 ~ but this doesn't seem to be the "System Python", why not? How does one change system Python and what are the drawbacks? ...
I'm developing something for Mac OS X. It's a port of a Windows product. One of my boss' concerns is how it will run on older versions of Mac OS X. I know Xcode has facilities for compiling for old versions of Mac OS X, but QA would prefer to actually run the older versions of Mac OS X on a Macintosh. Since we got into Macintosh devel...
Hello, I am trying to build a pre-written app, on OS X 10.5 with the base SDK set to OS X 10.4. There are a couple of pre-compiled header files which are returning errors on compile, in CFNetwork.h where it is including Availability.h "Availability.h - No such file or directory" I checked the header path and this header is not present...
In Mac OS X 10.6, NSEvent has a +modifierFlags class method to determind the currently pressed modifier flags. In 10.5, using [[NSApp currentEvent] modifierFlags] only updates after mouse move. Is there any way to asynchronously get the modifier flags? ...
I have a Mac with Leopard installed (not Snow Leopard). I'm trying to start playing around with iPhone development, so I want to download XCode and the iPhone SDK. I found a version of XCode on Apple's site which runs on Leopard, but it doesn't have the iPhone SDK bundled with it, and I can't find the iPhone SDK anywhere except bundled...
Hi. I have a simple question: does Xcode 3.2.4 work on Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) ? ...
I need to load flashplayer with webkit. but even the latest 'square' flashplayer doesn't support 64bit in Leopard by default. Unless I use the flashplayer-10.6.plugin instead. since webkit use a pluginAgent in Snow Leopard when running in 64bit mode. it does't matter whether my app is 32bit or 64bit. but unfortunately, the pluginAgent is...
It seems that most of Rails 3, Ruby 1.9.2 can be used, but when it is sqlite3-ruby, or mysql2 gems, then it can't compile, (missing mkmf?) and the latest Xcode is needed. But the latest Xcode is for Snow Leopard only. So looks like the Macbook needs to be upgraded to Snow Leopard before Rails 3 can be used? ...
compiling an app that needs to be compiled with a newer version of the gcc than is available with xcode 3.0 (what is on disk for the leopard install) but the newest download link for 3.2.4 only runs on snow leopard. what is the latest release of xcode that runs on leopard and if you have a link to the dmg that would be awesome. its tort...
I am aware that I cannot actually distribute an app that is not compile with the latest version, but I cannot upgrade my Mac now for some driver compatibility issue. So, for the time being, is there any way to do actaully code and test an iphone app in plain old leopard? I cannot find what I need to download in the dev center. Thank yo...
when i enter terminals commands etc and hit TAB (file name completion) the whole terminal window flashes rapidly (if there is no unique filename for example). This is not good since for some people this can trigger a seizure, and for me it causes really bad headaches. Is there a way we can disable this flashing? ...
I have a macbook that has Leopard (OS X 10.5) but don't have Snow Leopard. It ran Rails 2.3.8 fine, but now when it comes to Rails 3.x, with Ruby 1.9.2 (or 1.8.7), gem install cannot build mysql, mysql2, or sqlite3-ruby, so essentially, this macbook can't use Rails 3.x at all? Is there a way? thanks. (it seems that the latest Xcode ...
