hi all, I have heard a lot advantage of Objective-C, but I want to know the disadvantage of it. Can Objective-C be portable to other platform? I am afraid that the non-Mac software developer will refuse to write their software for X although the WWDC said that there is about 20,000 developers...

hi, everyone I have delete my Mac OS X for a long time, but now the version I want is out and I want to go out to Mac OS X. I need the speed. That I keep using OS 9 is because the speed of X is too slow. I am impatient, but I have to. Now it is 10.0.4, what about the speed now? anyone can give...

If I want to make a programming which will just act as a system plugin responding to the right-click event, what should I know? It seems that in the documentation from Apple, there is few discussion about this.

thank for your information

although I have searched the web a long time so that I can get enough resource for my project, I still can't find a complete documentation on Mac OS programming. Anybody can suggest the links or books which is treated as good resource for programming. The books I have got is INSIDE MACINTOSH are...

I know it is not a final. but the beta version is still go enough to run your program. someone suggests to use staroffice(openoffice). it is ok. but if I am right, applework is better than openoffice. furthermore, the openoffice documentation doesn't give full port for os x yet. based on our...

actually if you install os 9.2, you will find almost all application under 9.x can be run under osx classic mode.

I don't like the statement that os9 = win3.1 and os x =win95 osx is only used the UNIX kernel, all other GUI is from os9. win3.1 is based on Commandline DOS and just add very few graphics. win3.1 is 16bit and os 9 is 32bit os 9 = win95 is better. and os x = winME. The best graphics with the...

Although it is said that Carbon can't fully utilize the advanced tech in OS X, I don't think Cocoa application is faster that Carbon application. because no application is developed as Carbon and Cocoa at the same time, I can't compare them. But just look at OmniWeb and IE, the speed is not...

I want to ask a question. Does using unix kernel means that the system is UNIX? if the answer is yes, it does. then in this world. only three systems: DOS(windows and NT), MAC OS(classic), UNIX(current UNIX system, beOS, Linux, OS X, ...) This is because File Management System determines...

Why upgrade to OS X? I just installed it for have an overview of X. now I have deleted OS X. If the software want to used the full new tech in X, it must be rewritten in Ojective-C. Ojective-C is not portable to other platform. Although Apple said that it will save 90% work, big developer...

It is said that UNIX and LINUX is a true multitasking system. Since core of OS X is UNIX, does it provide true multitasking function? The CPU time seems not good to distribut to application.

I think everyone will have his/her own answer when see this question. Good os means 1. Stable (\/) OS X is really stable than other OS. 2. Compatible (\/) Hardware and Software compatible. OS X runs both Carbon and Cocoa application. But OS 9 runs Carbon and Classic application. OS 9...

It seems that no body can help me solve this problem. it is sad.

Although the 9.2 version is still debug version, it is very stable now. when use 9.2 under os x, it can run all classic programs (to me, all can run). photoshop, golive which before under 9.1, can't run. they automatically quit after startup. now 9.2 solve all the problems (I still can't find...

I always think classic is more securitive and more user-friendly and fast. I think since Apple have master the Preemptive multi-tast tech and Memory protected tech, She should add the techs into classic. If classic has Preemptive core, even it doesn't have mem protected, its performace is...
