Hi all,
I hope this isn't too far off topic, but I'm teaching myself
C/C++/Obj-C and I'm a bit lost. Where would I find documentation for
the APIs of these languages? I have a book and I'm learning the
basics, but the big question on my mind is where are the API docs?
With Applescript, function descriptions are available in the
application's or osaxen's dictionary. With Java there's always
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/
I know where the Cocoa docs are located, but outside of that, all I can
find so far for C and friends are header files. These are generally
very sparse on information, and seem to be scattered about randomly
(I'm sure there is some logic to their organization, but I have yet to
figure out what that is) Option-Double Click in PB went nowhere.
Doing 'man string' on the command line gives me some interesting
information, but still very sparse. What I'm looking for is an index
of what classes, functions, etc. are available, and a general
description of the classes/functions. I realize I'm just covering the
basics at the moment (chapter 3 of Bruce Eckel's Thinking In C++), but
syntax doesn't intimidate me and string + cout are getting old pretty
fast.
Any insight will be greatly appreciated.
