I've seen several programs which use a UI which looks just like Preview's. I want to do the same thing, so, I figure that there is probably some sample code somewhere that shows how to do that. I don't really need the "customize toolbar" option, although that would be cool. I more just want to know how to get Interface Builder to generat...
I'm about to start a new job where the coding practices are heavily centered around TDD and refactoring, and whose primary development language is Python. I come from the Java world, and have been a confident user of Eclipse for a good, long time. When not working in Java, I use emacs. I'm looking for an IDE for Python that will give ...
I am developing a ruby on rails app on OSX and I am logged in as an admin user. On my Windows box I am creating my images, but every time I copy them to the OSX box, the permissions are weak (understandably I guess). So per photo I keep having to right click, info and give everyone permissions to read and write, or my web server wont s...
I am trying to install Git on Mac OS X Leopard. I'm trying to avoid the MacPorts/Fink route. I'm also trying to avoid the installer on Google because I've gotten very far on my own, but if I have to I'll go ahead and download the installer. Anyway, I have Git installed. /usr/local/bin/git. The problem is that none of the documentation i...

i have tried VisualSVN server for the PC, and it seems pretty easy to install and use. The only catch is that my PC with Vista does crash, or can become not so responsive sometimes, so I am thinking of using an SVN server on the Mac instead. is there one on the Mac that is easy to install and is reliable too? ...
I have SVN running on my main windows development box on my home network. I access the server from various development laptops depending on what I'm doing. I also do this with a Mac OS X development laptop but I apparently have to use the IP Address of the SVN Server. This is causing problems because the IP address of the SVN server ch...

Hi. I'm an extremely amateur programmer; I've done some recreational algorithmics programming, but I honestly have no idea how libraries and programming languages really fit together. I'm supposed to work on a project that requires some image processing, so I've been trying to install PIL for a while, but I haven't been able to. I went ...

I'm working on a Cocoa project using Core Animation and I've got a custom view that is displayed in two windows. It always shows up in one window, but sometimes does not show up in the other window when I start up the application. So far as I can tell, it is completely random. Here is the code I call when the view is initialized. It ...

As a professional .net developer (at least this is how I earn my money) I wonder if Mono for the Mac is worth a closer look. I already tried Mono 3 years ago when I first got my iMac but the installation was impossible to master and after half a day I just gave up. I also got help from a Unix professional but we both were unable to get M...

But when I do 'which gdbclient' and 'alias gdbclient', it shows nothing. Is there anyway for me to find out what 'gdbclient' is actually doing? ...
