Re: Simulate touch event with cordinate?
I'm sorry, but my opinion remains. If someone such as Stephen Hawking (which is not mentioned that people like him are the users) would like to read with face gestures, he would not use an iPhone. Not even an iPad. Unless if there's an external device that could translate all of the gestures that these people have into touch events on the iOS. An iOS app for people without hands would still require the help of another person to operate the OS.

Re: Book for expert programmer about cocoa and Objective-C
John’s kind. A) You’d be hard pressed to find it in any form other than electronic. Even I only have a single copy. I think Erik hoarded the last few. b) It is 8+ years old. A lot of it is dated in that new additional have been made to those classes. c) As John said, it doesn’t cover new capabilities: No Core Animation, Core Data, Cocoa Animation, Spotlight, Quicklook, OpenGLES, the list is pretty log. I don’t recall if KVC and KVO are there, I know bindings is not. I know I’m missing loads more that has just become second nature material in the last 8 years of writing docs at Apple. Plus lots of things that can make your app stand out and incorporate into the OS just aren’t covered (because they weren’t there). And the lack of things like @property and other new Obj-C features like Blocks make it really dated. And I’m a co-author, by saying this I’m taking mere nothing from our mouths! :-) It was probably the most advanced at its time (he says widely out of character — and mostly due to Don and Erik — back into character), but now there are better options. (Although I was flattered beyond any measure when I saw it on an Apple engineer’s shelf and he told me he learned from it... I admire the heck out of this guy... if he reads this, he knows who he is) Aaron’s books are great for starting out and getting there. Erik and Don’s Design Patterns is also excellent and a must read. (Read that as more advanced) Bill Cheeseman has a Vermont Recipes sequel that is also excellent. Bill is sharp, not a dufus according to Roger Ebert (true - search the net), and a man I have huge respect for. His attention to detail (in particular with respect to accessibility) is admirable. I doubt anyone outside Apple knows more about accessibility than Bill. iOS has lots more. Matt Drance’s iOS Recipes (I think?) is supposed to be excellent and is in beta. Matt is sharp as hell (see FlipBook) and was an evangelist (Apple’s loss, and I’ve told him so). I’d say he knows it all. I’d get my butt kicked if I didn’t mention Jiiva Devoes book, but the name escapes me. Someone else is working on an Xcode 4 book, and he seems to be rather clueful. ;-) Plus, we work very hard to get the doc to where the majority of the developers need it. We publish in excess of 200,000 pages a month of developer docuentation (and that’s a low number from my calcs) If it isn’t what you need you have one option TELL US. WE SERVE YOU! Sorry to yell. But I really want to get that across. YOU are our customers in this case (DevPubs). You don’t buy it, but you are the reason it’s done. If you need something else or something more tell us. We’ll do our best. The more feedback we get, the better it will get. And if it helps save DTS time, that they can spend on other issues. Great. And on a personal note, thanks to Don and Erik for picking up the ball after so many years and writing the new book. Now maybe people will stop asking when there will be another version of Cocoa Programming (which, BTW, the newer book of the same name, also published by Sams, is not related too). In fact, thanks to ALL those who write books for the platform. Few other than Mr Hillegass are getting rich off them (and you have to keep him in cowboy hats :-). They’re a labor of love.

Re: Book for expert programmer about cocoa and Objective-C
No, not at all. I had nothing to do with the book. I didn’t even get a pre-release copy to read. I even bought my copy. (Although I think Erik offered to send me one) I try desperately not to read third party books that cover areas I do until I’ve done so. I don’t want to be influenced, even by accident as far as their approach. Erik and Don wrote the entire thing. Both of them are absolutely brilliant and have DEEP histories in the NeXT and OpenStep communities, not to mention that both wrote huge amounts of free Cocoa content for the (now defunct) Stepwise site. Sigh. Heart breaks. My only connection with the book was I registered the domain and then the blog for them because Erik knows Cocoa, but is a wee bit light on the web stuff. :-) After that they took all that over and it’s in their hands.
