Is there a way to determine the argument types of Objective-C methods traced by Instruments? I created a custom DTrace Instrument that just lists all Objective-C calls in a class. I am trying to swizzle one of the methods, but only the method name is listed. Is there a way to determine the argument types? Or as an alternative, a way to ...

I'm using Eclipse with C++ plugins on my macbook, trying some practice projects to improve my skills. I'd also like to test out Mercurial and get a taste of DVCS. Unfortunately, Eclipse + Mercurial + OSX seems to be a rare enough combination that there isn't a lot of helpful documentation out there. What I've done so far: Installed ...
I feel this is an awfully obtuse question to ask, but strangely, this problem is poorly documented. I would like to upgrade PHP, but there are several problems: There is no built-in package manager. MacPorts doesn't recognize php as an installed package because it didn't install PHP itself. Running locate php indicates there are pro...

I am on OSX Snow Leopard (10.6.2) I can install anything I need to. I would preferably like a Python or Java solution. I have searched on Google and found lots of information on writing my own program to do this, but this is a just a quick and dirty experiment so I don't want to invest a lot of time on writing a bunch of code to do this,...

Which type of project should I choose when Xcode shows the new project dialog? I tried selecting "Blank Project" but then I faced some issues in defining t...
I have a simple App that displays a list of items using NSTableView. There are usually about 15-25 items in the list, and the table has 10 columns, all but one of which are text (the other's an icon.) There are simple data transformers on a couple of the columns. So nothing taxing; you'd expect it to run just fine. And as it stands, it ...
Disk Utility in OSX easily mounts an SD Card image as a device, but not so the other img files. I want to get the database I just created in the Android Emulator off the drive and into my osx file system. I updated my system with qemu using macports but no combination I try succeeds. Anyone figured out how to do this? Obviously one wa...

I have no idea how to format the data. Here is an excerpt from the manual for the device. "The Net Manager Command structure consists of one ...
I want to put a dynamically generated icon (not static image) + possibly a tiny bit of text in OSX menu bar. If possible I'd prefer to do it from Ruby or some other convenient scripting language, but I'll deal with Objective C if that's the only way. How do I do that? ...

Hi, I had downloaded and installed the 1.6.9 version of SVN from http://subversion.tigris.org/. After the installation I noticed that if I launch the command "svn" from the terminal, my Mac still uses the old version, the 1.4.4. If i want to use the new version, I need to specify its path, like this: - /opt/subversion/bin/svn commit inst...
