Re: Enough with the newbie C questions!

Another suggestion for C beginners would be to subscribe to the Student-Dev list, which isn't bound to a language in particular. Such questions do come up there occasionally, and those students who have serious Cocoa questions are free to go to Cocoa-Dev.

But if you have access to some news service (hint: http://groups.google.com if you don't mind a web interface instead of a decent newsreader), comp.lang.c would probably be better. That group is dedicated to ANSI C questions. Just don't ask about a particular Mac API there...


Thanks to everyone who has posted to let me (and others) know where to go for our C questions.

For anyone else following this thread seeking similar answers to me...

I've found groups.google.com to be pretty hopeless. I post a message and it warns me immediately that it could take up to 9 hours for the message to be posted. I posted two messages 36 hours ago and only one of them has shown up so far (although a couple of good replies have been posted to that one).

I've found another, very helpful site:
<http://forums.devshed.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=42>
Messages appear immediately, and at least if my experience is anything to go by there are very helpful people there, replying promptly.

That said, I'm not a big fan of web interfaces, so I'm going off to check the apple student-dev list as well.

Thanks again to all for your help. My apologies for filling your mailboxes with off-topic questions (C instead of Cocoa).

Cheers!
David.
