Re: usefulness of source

I'm curious, it seems there are more people here enjoying gloating
over those that were anxious for the source than there are people
actually using it.  And that's what I'm really curious about, has
anyone found the source posted to be particularly useful?
Now that the source has been out for a full day, and all those
that have been chomping on the bit to get it finally have it,
I haven't seen anyone post success or failure stories with what
they're doing, other than my own dismal failure due to the lack
of xnu headers/source.  Do people actually do anything with the
source, or just have an obsessive compulsive disorder to
continually check for it?


OmniObjectMeter has benefited greatly from the availability of source for malloc, CF-lite, Csu, dyld, gdb, and the Objective-C runtime. I've also used the xnu source as the final word on how some of the Mach APIs work.
