Before you go any further, i highly recommend purchasing a book as
suggested previously. I recommend the book by Hillegass
Work through a few samples from the book and you will better
understand apples documentation.
I'm working the other side ... writing windows code with a mac
background. Documentation and examples have been an amazing help for me.

hi all,
thanks for the great advice
for better or worse i am porting a large piece of enterprise
software from
carbon/windows to cocoa/windows
most of the code is platform independent, but i can't make big
changes to
the overall structure of the program
so like step one is to replace WindowRef with NSWindow and watch the
carnage
ensue
thx,

hi all,
thanks for the feedback
i wrote a subclass for NSWindow but now i am wondering how usefull
that
was
do i have to subclass NSWindow to get events, or can I use
delegates?
i'm still a bit confused on the event model
I suggest a full stop.... forget your current carbon application
for a
while and instead learn Cocoa application development.
I highly recommend grabbing a copy of "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS
X"
[1] and working thru all of the examples, etc. in the book. (other
excellent books exist as well but this is the one we use to onboard
new developers)
Don't waste your time thrashing around.
