Then I thought of: [mySetOfObjects makeObjectsPerformSelector:@selector(action)]; And now, I don't know what is the best choice. As far...

I'm been trying to poll from a set of named-pipes for a little while now and i keep getting an immediate response of POLLNVAL on any named pipe file descriptor. After finding this blog post about broken polling in OS X I'm pretty certain that this is a b-u-g bug in OS X. I'm already planning on switching my code to using UDP sockets, b...
Coming from a Microsoft development backgroup I am a bit confused as to what development languages/environments are available on an Mac. Are there any C# like languages to develop with on the Mac other than Java that I should also consider? What do MS to OSX converts prefer and why?

Just recently started developing on a Mac (love it!), using Eclipse, but was really tripped up by the use of the command key... and not all the shortcuts map over consistently. I've already re-mapped all my common shortcuts to use Ctrl, ...
I'm going back over some crufty code to tidy it up and I see I've been retaining NSTimers returned from scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:target:selector:userInfo:repeats: and storing them in a field - then releasing and nulling the field when it fires. In some cases I use the timer to send an invalidate message to it later - but in many ca...
