Hi there, I'm just starting out on my first 'real' cocoa app. Note that this is Mac, not iPhone. This function is called when my async download of onemanga finishes, and is intended to parse an NSArray list of manga from it. I get a NSArray from nodesForXPath, and retain it to make sure it's mine. (Also tried retaining it twice, heh). ...
Although I have a feeling that this isn't technically possible, it's worth asking anyways. Is it possible to turn on the Macbook Pro's keyboard backlights for individual keys? I am working on a piece of grid-based software which allows the user to navigate around by pressing any key on the keyboard to position the cursor at that point ...
I cannot figure out how to do this. All I want to do is to select some text and then change the color of that text to red, say. I've lost 20 minutes of my life trying to do this. Typing 'font color' into help search brings up a reference to lesson 2, which doesn't even contain the word font or color. (Is TextWrangler low quality?) How...
Hi, I'm trying to use Growl Python binding to write a small application. One of the feature that's currently missing is the click notification sent to Python. I know in Objective-C, when a user click the notification, it will send the trigger to the running application. I'd like to do the similar thing in Python binding. When a user c...
NOTE: user377519 (answer below) pointed me in the right direction. I've posted the 'fix' at the bottom of the questions, in case you found this and need more than a 'pointer' I can't figure out why the second call to "gem env" doesn't have the same environment as the first? Any pointers? This is driving me crazy!!!! $ which gem /usr...
So I'm using Apple's PictureSharing/PictureSharingBrowser samples to send and receive data. This uses an NSFileHandle on the server side to send a picture using NSFileHandle's writeData method. NSFileHandle * incomingConnection = [[aNotification userInfo] objectForKey:NSFileHandleNotificationFileHandleItem]; [[aNotification object] acc...

Is there any tutorials or references, if such thing is possible, to make GUI applications out of command line apps? What I mean is, having a command line app, wrap it into an app bundle and create a Cocoa GUI app that would have a simple interface to execute the command line app with its flags and parameters. ...
Hi, i'm trying to get started with the iPhone development and viewing the Stanford iPhone talks from iTunes U. In the first demo they added Class Actions and Class Outlets to an Object. Since they used SDk 3.1 and I have 4.0 things differ a bit. I don't have these elements they have there. I looked but I didn't find anything similar. H...

I read some articles discouraging of the use of DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, as the the path of dynamic library should be fixed using -install_name, @rpath, and @loader_path. In terms of making a program that runs both on Linux and Mac OS X, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH of Mac OS X does exactly what LD_LIBRARY_PATH of Linux. And, we can share (almost) the ...
I'm having some trouble with colors in interface builder and cocoa. I built out my interface in photoshop, and when i copy the RGB values from photoshop and set my UI elements in interface builder, or through code, the colors are not even close. I've messed around with setting color profiles in photoshop but can't seem to find one that m...
I have been struggling to enable autocompletion on Eclipse (mac) for Qt classes. I added /Library/Frameworks/QtCore (and QtGui) to the C++ Path and Symbols tab on the preferences dialog but for some reason although it can find the class names it refuses to autocomplete the class methods and member attributes. Tried to use both INCLUDE an...
