I'm intrigued by the alleged OACalendarView class, but I just wasted my
whole afternoon trying and failing to get the Omni frameworks built.
I'm not coming at this blind -- I've written some frameworks of my own
and loaded them into my own projects' bundles successfully, so I know
about the "@executable_path/../Frameworks"/SKIP_INSTALL=YES hack, and
I've been over the archives of both cocoa-dev and macosx-dev trying
to find people with similar failures (there are plenty of Omni
framework failures in the archives to choose from).
At every turn, OmniBase builds successfully, and then OmniFoundation
fails to compile its first file because it can't find <OmniBase/rcsid.h>.
I haven't reached OmniAppkit yet.
To prove I wasn't crazy, I created a tiny project from scratch, dragged
in the OmniBase framework, imported <OmniBase/rcsid.h> and it built
flawlessly. So I'm not crazy, but I'm completely frustrated, not least by
Omni's indifference to documentation.
I'd love to save myself the trouble of building my own calendar view, but
if this horror show has been any indication of how much care Omni puts
into its code, I'd be much better off starting from scratch.
I'm using the December 2001 developer tools, but I tried building these
frameworks on a friend's 10.2 6C105 system, where OmniBase itself
wouldn't build. That's wasn't a dependency problem as far as I could see.
If the April tools will fix this problem I'll gladly update, with 10.2
just around the corner anyway.
Thanks for any help.
Jim
