Re: Manually Creating nib files



On a related note, you may want to contact Greg, the maintainer of Gorm (http://www.gnustep.org/experience/Gorm.html). Gorm is the "Interface Builder" of the GNUstep world and mirrors IB quite directly (although many new Apple innovations are not as yet available from my understanding). Instead of nibs, you have gorms. Nib and gorm files seem to share a similar purpose and representation. The Gorm source code is available for download at the above link if you want to have a look.

If you are not aware of it, you are able to search the cocoa mailing list archives at cocoa builder. The link below will get you started.

keyedobjects.nib replaces the old objects.nib file.

Also, the command-line based nibtool may be of some help:

tell us more about your research please!

I need to be able to manually creating nib files without the use of Interface Builder (this is necessary for a research project).



this doesn't use interface builder but also avoids nibs altogether i think, but still might be useful to you in some way:
<http://www.gnustep.it/Renaissance/>
In short, GNUstep Renaissance allows you to describe your user interfaces (that is, the windows in your application, and the buttons, boxes, textfields, etc in the windows) in simple and intuitive XML files, using an open, standard format describing the logic of the interface. GNUstep Renaissance can then, at run time, generate the user interfaces (using the native host OpenStep- like libraries) by reading the XML files.....
