[Closed] Site with OSX specific examples?

Post by garretthylltun »

Does anyone have a site or a link to a site with OSX specific examples?

I've been trying to pick a cross platform language. I'm recently a
Mac convert and intend to do most of my work on OSX. PB looks good
and I bought it, but am a bit disappointed because I can't find any OSX
specific examples. Everything seems to be Win examples and blows
errors when trying to run on OSX.

Also, where and how do I run the visual designer?

Thanks in advance,
-Garrett

Hi!
PB Macintosh is an new product, only some months I think. So there is not much Mac Specific PB Source code available. Take a look here in the Forum in the thread Mac OS Specific links and code snippets...

What do you mean with specific Mac code, it is possible to use both Dylibs and Carbon calls, see my example in the thread Mac OS Specific links and code snippets... (I just writing on an Carbon wrapper for PB)

Regards,

Yes, the product is quite new, but we will try to make it better each time a bug is reported. Thoerically, each PB Windows example which doesn't use special constants (mainly #WM_xxx) or API (mainly command with an '_' at the end) should work on OS X.

Also the CodeArchiv (you can get it on www.PureArea.net ) was updated with a new 'OS:' tag to show, if a code is runnable on a specific system.

Even if there are MacOS only codes available, they can found their way into the next release of the CodeArchiv. Just tell me (or post in Tipps & Tricks section).
Bye,
