Cocoa Developers,
When I build any of my apps, they usually take about 4-5 bounces to
load-up. How can I get it to launch like IE in 1 or two bounces?
Luke,
easy... remove all your working code and add loads of bugs!! Sorry,
couldn't resist!
Perhaps one trick to speed up dock bouncing is moving the slow / big
code into shared / dynamic / plugin / whatever libraries, so that the
stripped down app launches instantly, and then finishes loading itself
by getting all the libraries hooked up? Pure speculation I hasten to add.
On the other hand I'm sure Apple helped Microsoft in building IE... they
seemed suitably proud of it at WWDC 2000 to warrant much of it being
their work. But again speculation.
