Re: Books to get started



Davy,

Welcome to Carbon. There are no good books introducing Carbon. There are no tutorials.

There are two excellent books on Quartz that are mostly Carbon. They are up-to-date and may be enough to get you started.

The rest of the Carbon books are hopelessly out-dated.

Greetings,
I am wanting a recommentation of book(s). I'm an experienced C/C+ + programmer and have done GUI application development in win32 and linux. I'm venturing out into the OS X world and would like to know if you can recommend any good books. What I don't want to do is just learn the Carbon API and assume I can write a good application for OS X by simply doing what I've done in win32 or linux. I'm plenty familiar with HOW to program, but would want to read a book that informs on how things are generally done in the OS X world. I realize that there is also Cocoa, but want to stick with Carbon for the time being.


Thanks.
 Davy
