The issues involved in this task don't really have anything to do with Objective-C; they have to do with integrating with a web server. And to the extent that you have questions about things like how to link the module or how to set up an Xcode project for it, those are best asked on the xcode mailing list. > And I'm not writing a apache module just for a web application, I'm writing > it so I can get the language of Objective-C to the web easier and better. It's not necessary to write an Apache module to do that. For example, Python and Ruby are both extremely popular for web development and neither of them uses a special Apache module. (There is an old mod_python, but no one uses it.) They use either SCGI or proxying. AFAIK the same is true of Java. PHP is kind of an oddball. That's what I meant by the machine-shop analogy. Apache modules are hard to write, can break the web server if they go wrong, and are generally used for specific low-level purposes, mostly infrastructure. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
