Does anybody remember which framework you linked against. All I get is
undefined symbols for the following four items.

> // private SPI function definitions into the CoreGraphics framework
>
> extern void *CGSReadObjectFromCString(char*);
> extern char *CGSUniqueCString(char*);
> extern void *CGSSetGStateAttribute(void*,char*,void*);
> extern void *CGSReleaseGenericObj(void*);

I've included ApplicationServices.framework which includes
CoreGraphics, however I still get the link errors. I know it's not
nice to depend on private items.

I'm actually surprised this hasn't been remedied yet. It sure would be
nice to have a common method to apply shadows to graphical items. That
way, the shadows can be consistent, optimized for the hardware, and
visually consistent.

Not wanting to wait any longer, I figured I'd finally try this out.
Unfortunately the sample project isn't downloadable anymore, and I
can't get class-dump working on CoreGraphics.framework.

Did these items disappear as previously warned, or is there another
framework I'm supposed to link against?

Or is there a better, yet still undocumented method for adding shadows?

Cheers,
Brant
