He needs to take some time to understand how Carbon works and is
fundamentally different than Win32. Whether you like me saying it
or not, people are generally more willing to help someone who has
invested time and energy trying to understand things before coming
here. If you come here asking people to tell you how to do things
before you've learned the fundamentals, it really doesn't go over
so well.
I formally disagree with this statement !
Carbon is NOT fundamentally different from Win32 - Both are based
an a very similar event handling mechanism which makes possible a
common set of code on both plateforms.
Resources can be easily translated. Win32 controls in windows work
similarly to Carbon Controls and HiViews - Window Management is
quite similar. Endianness is the only delicate question.
Of course everything is not identical but with some wrappers, it is
very easy to convert a Win32 app into a pure C or C++ Carbon app.
Sorry. I realize the event handling mechanisms are similar, I just
meant that there's more involved in porting a Windows application to
the Mac than just replacing APIs, at least if you want to do it right.
