Question... I am writing a program (C++, Carbon, Codewarrior 8, OS X) and I am having difficulty understanding how to handle macintosh paths. The following code should generate a full file name that can be opened by the fopen() command (ansi C), but it does not work. the first argument...

Thank you 1000 times :) I am doing some cross platform work (Windows and Mac) and begin unfamiliar with the Mac API, getting answers from helpful people like you certianly help push me in the right direction. Thanks again, Konan

Is it possible to create a window in Carbon that has absolutely no title bar on it? For example, a spash screen that has no window controls attached to it (and say it only goes away if you click on it or press a key). Is it possible and if so, any advice on how to do it would be greatly...

It seems that Project Builder is incapable of making any targets for OS 9. I tried to do this myself, but then I found a reference in the help section saying that it is for OS X only. If you have the cash, try Codewarrior. If not, you can use MPW (Macintosh programmer's toolkit) which is...

How can I remove everything from a window except it's drawing surface (in carbon)? I would like to have my program create windows which contain QuickTime movies, but have the windows completely borderless with no title bar. The window should also stay on top of any other window in the...

It turned out that there is a minor bug in CW 8 Win/Mac (In Windows, compiling for Macintosh) that prevents proper linking to the OpenGL libraries. However, it is easily fixed be word "Stub" from the stub files. For example OpenGLLibraryStub becomes OpenGLLibrary Konan

What is this Hal's prototypes? Konan

Is anyone out there using Codewarrior 8 Pro in Windows to compile for a Mac target? Anyone? Konan

I am using Codewarrior 8 for Windows/Mac and I would like to use OpenGL for Carbon. I downloaded an SDK from Apple, but I suspect that it is not compatible with CW8 because it did not link properly (or I did something wrong). Can anyone let me know exacult which SDK I should use for...

Here is what I want to do... I want to grab a window that was created in my program (Cocoa) and manipulate it. The only hitch is that I want to grab the window by it's text caption, and without any knowledge of how the window was originally created. In Windows, I would do something like this...

Kool. Thanks.

Are there any cocoa and or carbon routines for high level multimedia manipulation, like the ability to record and playback audio files. For example, in windows there is a "Media Control Interface" (MCI) which allows the programmer access to these features via simple string commands like...

Cross platform GLUT. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Konan

If I needed to turn off the OpenGL acceleration in OS X, how would I do this? My system doesn't actually support OpenGL acceleration (Purple iMac), but I would like to know how this is done in any case. Screen shots would be really helpful as well :) Konan

Is there any way (any way at all) to force an OpenGL program to run in software mode? I would like to have this option if the user's OpenGL video card is not working properly with my program. On the PC version of my software, several OpenGl video cards crap out while they do not in software...

Found it and running it. Thanks. Konan

I just found out that it does exactly what it says. It turns off the desktop so there are no icons or background image. I don't think that I want to go that far... Konan

Where can I download XOptimize? Also, what does the "Use the Desktop" option do (in TinkerTools)?

Man, I should have asked this question a long time ago. This stuff speeds up OS X on my iMac (333 purple) like 100x. Very, very kool. Is there any way to get "No effect" from the Dock, so windows just appear and disappear? Konan

I just DL's TinkerTool. Any recommendations for settings to enhance the overall speed?
