Manually moved to SU: Can I safely exclude sleepimage from OS X backups I am using Chronosync to make a complete bootable backup of my OS X 10.6.4 machine to an external USB drive. It takes a LONG time (even incrementals) and part of the problem is the 8GB sleepimage. Can I safely exclude this from the backup? I realize that ...
I am compiling a library (http://www.antisphere.com/Wiki/tools:anttweakbar) but issuing "make" with its included makefile on my mac produces a dynamic library (.dylib). I would much rather have a static library so that I can deploy it with my app. Is it easy/possible to translate the flags in the makefile to produce a static library? It...
I'm trying to implement a view controller for a custom NSOpenGLView based view (this is Cocoa, not Cocoa Touch). The view is contained within a NIB loaded window but it does not have its own NIB. In fact the window contains multiple instances of the view. I want to route mouse events to the controller instead of to the view. I would ...
I've got an Atmel AVR A90USBxxxx device that I have configured to "talk USB" via CDC. It's designed to take input from a Host computer, running Windows, Linux, or OS X. I'm under the impression that Linux and OS X will immediately recognize this CDC device, and with a simple .inf a Windows machine can be told my VID/PID should be opene...
Hey all, I was wondering if there was a way to write a Cocoa app that listened for OS system events such as an application launching, a window switches, etc, etc. My thought was to watch [NSNotficationCenter default] for messages but so far I haven't been able to find much. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks! ...

I am now trying to optimize the launch time of an application, and currently want to reduce the time spent by the OS image loader. From dyld(1), I found two environment variables: DYLD_PRINT_STATISTICS and DYLD_PRINT_INITIALIZERS. DYLD_PRINT_STATISTICS causes dyld to print statistics about how dyld spent its time. This is its output wh...

For a while now I have been killing spare time by creating a 2D game programming toolkit/library. It is written in Objective C, and consists of an OpenGL rendering system and a whole bunch of AI, physics code, a bunch of specialized containers and other game related stuff. Apart from the OpenGL based View mechanism (obviously), most of t...

When I am using an NSOperationQueue to do that and set the layer content in this block the image will not show immediately, it will show after around 2-3 second. I try to set the layer for setNeedsDisplay and so one, but this option seems not be...

Hello ;-) I have a newbie but really important question for me: I have a Mac Os X application that uses carbon api, but it is still a C++ application. I need to debug which functions are called at execution time and then make a C++ patch to replace one of those functions. The real goal: I need to log all text printed into a chat window...
I am writing a quicklook plugin for an MPO file. The plugin isn't that much of a problem, but the problem is trying to debug it. Apples documentation says that to debug you use qlmanage -r <filename> And I have. However, none of my breakpoints are matched. I assume this is as it hasn't matched my quicklook plugin with the type. Usin...

What I want to do is check the clipboard, see if it's a certain value, and make a web request with that clipboard value. This is what I currently have, it just gets the ...
