    IBook vs 12 inch Powerbook

    Also: I've heard it said in this forum that the PB 12" gets a little hot. I've got a 12" iBook myself (500Mhz - one of the first) and do a lot of Java programming on it. Its great. Especially coz its such a great network citizen :) I can connect to almost every network I encounter - which is a...

    Port Forwarding

    You can forward ports with SSH, but I'm not sure that's exactly what your looking for. You can also check ipfw - I *think* I read something in there about it (??) C

    Wireless net sharing

    Have you set all the iBooks to get their IP through DHCP? If not, do so. If you check the G4's interface with ifconfig en[N], where [N] is the interface number of your airport (normally 1), you could see that it has to inet addresses configured for it. This happens if you have manually...

    10.2.5 Mail quits slower??

    Hi, Is it just me, or does it now take longer to Quit Mail? I hit cmd-Q, and the window vanishes almost instantly, but the Mail App itself hangs around for about 10 secs. In 10.2.4 this used to just snap shut - end of story. Hrm. C

    visual java development

    You could also consider using NetBeans - although I've always felt that to be v.slow! But it's quite a nice env once you get used to it and there's tons of support available from the community. I must say thought, that JB is my favorite, since its the only one where you can get a half decent Vi...

    Nasty AWT problem with Java 1.4.1

    Hey there, Haven't had a chance to try out what you described, but I'm going to guess here: I read that Apple has now based the AWT underpinnings on Cocoa - this *could* mean that you'll have the same problems with NSRect, etc. in Java/AWT now. But like I say, this is a fairly unfounded guess :) C

    hacking iCal

    I'd also be interested to know this, as I'm planning on writing some synching software for Zaurus -> OS X when I get the time :) So please post here again if you ever find out :) C

    iTunes loses sound and songs

    I've noticed this (or something similar) too ... the song suddenly stops and will then continue after a pause of several seconds. I'm running on 500Mhz (dual USB) iBook ... so perhaps its a performance thang ... it could be that the newer / faster Macs don't have this problem? Could someone with...

    Hey there, Has anyone got experience (any :)) with using web services from within a Cocoa (or straight ObjC) program? Ta C

    Linking MySQL C Lib in PB

    OK. I've figured it out. What you do is add the lib dir to the search path for the target (see PB help) ... in my case /usr/local/mysql/lib then you add some additional options to the linker (the text field right at the bottom) ... '-lmysqlclient -lz1.1.3' and voila, we have a linking version. C

    I'm falling at the first hurdle in Project Builder

    yup - that does the trick ... just use: & l t ; & g t ; without the spaces in between to get the angle brackets (stands for less than and greater than) C

    Linking MySQL C Lib in PB

    Its probably something really easy (I'm hoping) ... but how do I link in the MySQL library in ProjectBuilder??? I'm trying to do a simple Cocoa App that uses the MySQL C library to access a database ... I managed to compile the object code by adding the mysql.h file to the project (but there's...

    PBX header <-> framework problem, 'No such file..'

    I think I had something similar. I added the WebServiceCore framework to a project (the first project I was using a different framework in) and it couldn't find the headers in the include sections. Turns out the includes were unnecessary - hopefully that's the case with yours too - just try...

    checking battery from terminal

    Thanks. You're right, tho - not quite what I was looking for :) I've seen that when you boot into single user mode (or at least I seem to remember...) that there's a message showing the battery status in percent. Hence I'm assuming there'll be a C API to that somewhere. I'll have a dig around...

    Finder Restart when changin volume after waking from sleep on iBook

    Wow. Possibly the longest subject I've ever posted. Anyhoo - I've had this three times now ... if I try to change the volume using F4 / F5 just after waking from sleep on my iBook with Jag 2.3 loaded the Finder will restart (although I have a sneaking suspicion that its actually the...

    Sunny iBook

    Hey all, Haven't had this before: its just really sunny outside and I'm sitting in the living room with iBook on lap facing the sun. And I get a little glowing apple in the middle of the screen. :) Obvious why, of course. Predictable, probably. Just hasn't been that sunny here for a while -...

    The D programming language

    There are two things to say about it as far as I'm concerned. 1) Its obviously not impossible given the very large number of successful projects written in C++ 2) Its a pain in the arse and the reason why I much prefer writing in Java than in C++. And its not just me. But like someone...
