In general, we're trying to make Project Builder a convenient way to
find all the documentation you need. The fact that Project Builder can
do focused symbol searches makes it much more convenient for finding
API reference than just general text searches, and we aim to refine
that functionality in the future. There are still some specific bugs,
but we're looking to address as many as we can for the next tools
release. If you haven't tried using Project Builder for documentation
access, please give it a try and send us feedback about how well it
works, what ways it doesn't work for you, and ways in which you'd like
to see it improved.
Thanks, will do. Via the ADC feedback page, I presume?
By the way, if you have typed a method or class name in your source
code and want to see the documentation for it, just
option-double-click on it.
That's pretty nice, and leads to what'll be my first feedback: There's
no (apparent) documentation for NSRect and NSPoint. Not that there's
much to them, but if something like option-double-click works for some
NS* stuff it should work for all of it, IMHO, even if that means just
bringing up the appropriate header file so that I can see the
definition.
Yea that got me too, I was working with window sizes and I was like ok
I got an NSRect, now what? It's not a class so it must be a structure,
but where is it documented. I had to do a search on google to learn
about it. Later I found it is documented under foundation types and
constants.
