| no... nonononononononononono... The apps with the .app suffix is Cocoa apps, not carbon apps, and cocoa apps can only be used in OS X. In the same way, Classic apps can only be used in OS 9 (or earlier). Only Carbon apps can be used in both OS 9 and OS X.

| What about iTunes and IE? I thought that they were both carbon apps?

| the .app extension just means the app is structured as a bundle. it doesn't necessarily say anything about the API it's written to.

 Appleworks is a .app application and I use the same one in both OS 9.1 and OS X [the difference is the OS X version is 6.2], .app applications can be used in OS 9.1. I have downloaded a lot of OS X applications that were written in carbon, off download.com and they all seem to work perfectly well in OS 9.1.

| Wow, so many different ideas of Carbon We are now actually dealing with four different type of application environments now. (1) The good old Mac OS app that runs fine in OS 7-9 and needs Classic to run in Mac OS X. (2) Carbon compatible apps that use the Caron libs to run and can run on OS 8.6-X (in most cases, some may still invoke Classic). (3) Mac OS X native Carbon created using project builder and interface builder and are designed to take advantage of the Mac OS X Aqua interface (like using sheets instead of dialog boxes and windows for some functions). (4) Cocoa (formerly Yellow Box, formerly OpenStep), again a Mac OS X native environment that has a different feature set (like application cooperation) than Carbon. And some may want to add Unix to the mix, and maybe even X-Windows, but that is moving out of the main stream application environments for most Mac users. |
