Re: Removing folder from /Applications

Support saving to network volumes
Hello folks, being more sysadmin than developer I'm very interested in the issue of saving Photoshop files over network, which is discussed here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7280520 and here http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b56503/8 - and appears to be broken in the 10.5.3. I did check documentation again and I didn't find anything specific about saving to network volumes. I thought that _it just works_. I got several in house applications which support saving and am very interested in saving _the right way_ PS: I know that Adobe and even Microsoft doesn't officially support working on files which are on the network Thanks Robert ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

So now I scan the folder with directoryContentsAtPath I compare with the previous list and I know that there are 2 new files. Well, one file is totally copied and the other one could be still in copying. You can try FSGetCatalogInfo() and the kFSNodeForkOpenBit of the nodeFlags field of the FSCatalogInfo structure to test if the file is still open. I'm not sure if this is supported on all filesystems that Mac OS X supports. It's actually very unusual for an OS or filesystem implementation to keep that sort of information in application-accessible form. The problem on a preemptively multi-tasking system is that the file's status can change between when you test and when you act on the results of the test. Generally speaking, sometimes the solution to a race condition like that is to attempt to grab the contended resource for exclusive access. If you succeed, you know that nobody else was using the resource, nor will they be able to start using it while you're using it. Again, it's quite unusual for modern OSes to support mandatory locking of files in this way. Most only provide advisory locking. However, Mac OS X's File Manager still maintains provisions for it. Once again, they may not work on all filesystems. In addition to the File Manager Reference, you can check out Technical Note FL37 http://developer.apple.com/technotes/fl/fl_37.html, although it's nearly archaic. (Not as archaic as the date it claims, though! :) OK, so none of the above actually works in the general case on Mac OS X. I checked the nodeFlags thing myself with a little test program and it doesn't work. The bits indicating if forks are open are never set. Also, I found a more recent technote regarding exclusive file access: http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn2037.html . That technote, though, does indicate that the frameworks perform and respect advisory locking. So, this is pretty good. It covers the most common cases. The exception would be a program using the BSD/ POSIX file access routines directly. Regards, Ken ___ I remember a utility which I wrote several years ago and I solved the problem using timer.

The button is OK.
I found that I could get the button to work by entering the Return key
equivalent in IB, stubbing out awakeFromNib. However, the
*appearance* of
the button is still non-default.
Also, Hillegass instructs to set up the FirstResponder of the window
to
point to the textField. I had done that earlier and thought that it
might
be interefing so I eliminated it along with the entire textField in
IB, then
made a new textField without messing with FirstResponder. I found
that the
textField behaves just as though the FirstResponder still existed
(perhaps
this is a new default behavior with a single textField). The button
appearance was not fixed.
So, right now, the button works as though it were the default
(thanks to the
IB key equivalent field) but it does not *look* like a default
button. I
searched again for some difference in what I did vs. what the
BackgroundExporter code looks like and cannot find any real
differences.
Moreover, the debugger behaves as though all it well -- no errors,
no nil
outlets.
BTW, all of this is with Xcode 3.0 and OS 10.5.2.

However I don't get correctly encoded data from NSXMLNodes Well, what *do* you get? Show us the data and what you expected. I get the data in us-ascii encoding. The accented characters are missing from output or changed to wrong letters When I get contents of URL as NSData and convert it to [NSString initWithData:(NSData *)data encoding:(NSStringEncoding)encoding] and provide NSWindowsCP1250Encoding, I get correct result. Then you could use the -initWithXMLString: initializer instead... —Jens Robert ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

AddressBook.framework binding
hi everybody,
I searched the web but I'm probably not asking the right question :/
Is there a way how to use AddressBook data with bindings directly (I
mean without writing glue code for extracting values wrapped with
properties)?
I mean I can write bunch of repeating code and add it to ABPerson
category like:
@implementation ABPerson (_binding_)
- (NSString*)lastName
{
return [self valueForProperty:kABLastNameProperty];
}
- (NSString*)firstName
{
return [self valueForProperty:kABFirstNameProperty];
}
@end
but is there a more clever way?
Thanks
Robert

Why is my NSTableView empty?
Hi,
I'm kind of stupid today, my question is probably very easy to answer.
I haven't been in programming for some time and somehow cannot manage
solution for my following simple problem..
I got an array 'peeps' populated in apps delegate:
peeps = [[NSArray arrayWithArray:[[ABAddressBook sharedAddressBook]
people]] retain];
I created an ABPerson category to get lastName easily...
- (NSString*) lastName
{
return [self valueForProperty:kABLastNameProperty];
}
and I'm trying to display all last names in the table.
- I created NSArrayController ABPeople and set content to my delagate,
key path: peeps
- I bound table content to ABPeople, controller key: arrangedObjects
- I bound table column value to ABPeople, controller key:
arrangedObjects, model key path: lastname
and my table becomes full of empty rows (I got 380 addresses in AB, so
I expect I got 380 empty rows in table). What am I missing?
Thanks in advance
Robert

Hello IS, thanks for your reply. On 28.4.2008, at 16:46, I. Savant wrote: and I'm trying to display all last names in the table. - I created NSArrayController ABPeople and set content to my delagate, key path: peeps This is imprecise - if there is a problem with this, we won't know to tell you about it without the specifics of how this works in your application. I dragged NSArrayController over my MainMenu.nib file a dropped it. I did set: ClassName = ABPerson Prepares contents = YES Editable = YES Controller Content: Bind to MyApp_Delegate model key path: peeps - I bound table content to ABPeople, controller key: arrangedObjects - I bound table column value to ABPeople, controller key: arrangedObjects, model key path: lastname Why both? Drop the table content binding and just bind the column value. Also, was lastname a typo or is the model key path actually lastName? This matters. I did drop content binding for table and checked that lastName was a typo. I created a textfield and did set it up to: binding: ABPeople controller key: arrangedObjects model:@count and got correct 388 count of ppl in AB.
