I've put a brief discussion of changes to REALbasic relating to
declares on my web site <http://www.declaresub.com/>. The page link
is conveniently near the Google ads.
I point out one potentially serious problem. Setting a CFStringRef
to a null pointer will result in a crash if you then attempt to
convert the CFStringRef to a String. Because Core Foundation
functions frequently return 0 in case of error, declaring the return
type of a function as CFStringRef is a very bad idea for any code
that you intend to be reliable. The relevant "feedback" URLs are
