Unfortunately, there is no way to bundle a framework with a command-line Utility in OS X and I suspect that the framework you’re linking to is expecting to be bundled in the app bundle’s Frameworks/ directory. If you have access to the framework source code, you can compile a static library and statically link it … Read more
You are needlessly complicating things. Why are you converting the date to a time interval (then the time interval to a different primitive)? Just [sharedDefaults setObject:theDate forKey:@”theDateKey”] and be done with it. NSDate is one of the “main types” supported by the PLIST format (dates, numbers, strings, data, dictionaries, and arrays), so you can just … Read more
Improving on that CocoaRocket solution: The following saves having to subclass NSTextField and remembering to use the subclass throughout your application; it will also enable copy, paste and friends for other responders that handle them, eg. NSTextView. Put this in a subclass of NSApplication and alter the principal class in your Info.plist accordingly. – (void) … Read more
I use a simple category on NSData that uses the built-in CommonCrypto framework to do AES 256-bit encryption. I use this on the Mac but it should work OK on iPhone too: #import <CommonCrypto/CommonCryptor.h> @implementation NSData (AESAdditions) – (NSData*)AES256EncryptWithKey:(NSString*)key { // ‘key’ should be 32 bytes for AES256, will be null-padded otherwise char keyPtr[kCCKeySizeAES256 + … Read more
The datasource supplies the data, the delegate supplies the behavior. In MVC, datasource is in the model layer and the delegate is in the control layer. Actually, on second thought, the datasource is usually controller that is lower down, closer to the model. I don’t think I’ve ever used a model object as my datasource.
Working with Swift 3 let src = CGEventSource(stateID: CGEventSourceStateID.hidSystemState) let cmdd = CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: src, virtualKey: 0x38, keyDown: true) let cmdu = CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: src, virtualKey: 0x38, keyDown: false) let spcd = CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: src, virtualKey: 0x31, keyDown: true) let spcu = CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: src, virtualKey: 0x31, keyDown: false) spcd?.flags = CGEventFlags.maskCommand; let loc = CGEventTapLocation.cghidEventTap cmdd?.post(tap: loc) spcd?.post(tap: … Read more
copy and mutableCopy are defined in different protocols (NSCopying and NSMutableCopying, respectively), and NSArray conforms to both. mutableCopy is defined for NSArray (not just NSMutableArray) and allows you to make a mutable copy of an originally immutable array: // create an immutable array NSArray *arr = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @”one”, @”two”, @”three”, nil ]; // create … Read more
Based on all the responses, the post on raywenderlich.com and the gist created by Chris Conway I came up with this. Executing the following steps I was able to build a Cocoa Touch framework (including Swift and Objective-C files) that contains all architectures for both simulator and device: Create a new (Aggregate) target in your … Read more
Chris, the only solution is to use CALayers. That is definitely the one and only solution. NSViews are plain broken in OSX (Sept 2010): siblings don’t work properly. One or the other will randomly appear on top. Just to repeat, the problem is with siblings. To test this: using NSViews and/or nsimageviews. Make an app … Read more
There’s an API that’s new in Leopard called LSSharedFileList. One of the things it lets you do is view and edit the Login Items list (called Session Login Items in that API). BTW, I’m the lead developer of Growl. We haven’t switched away from AE yet because we still require Tiger, but I’m thinking of … Read more
