    How to access a graphics context for a view?

    I'm lost. I know this must be simple, but I can't find it. All the documentation and sample code I have looked at assumes that I will be drawing in a view after a kEventControlDraw event and the context is retrieved from the GetEventParameter. I want to simply draw in a window after the user...

    Advice on IDE or compiler

    I have not programmed on a mac in a couple of years, and have never programmed in OSX. I was using Codewarrior 6.0 in OS 9, so all my code is in that environment. Most of my code is C, some is native C with a Java interface (which is really ugly to compile and I'm not sure I can do it any more)...
