Still, I think that you should not hang around a mailing list like cocoa-dev if you feel bothered by questions posed by people less-knowing than you. Afterall you might need help from me someday for something that does not seem 'basic' to you.

Maybe *you* should not hang around mailing lists for a development environment where people are bothered by people like you who constantly ask questions to which the answer can be found in any decent book about C programming.


  This isn't comp.lang.c.rtfm, this is Cocoa-Dev.

Gosh, the guy *answered your question*, and you have the *nerve* to tell him he'd better get off this list?!

I would really like to learn this, but with all the information available, all I need is a simple pointer in the right direction. Tell me where I can find this 'all-encompassing how a C/Obj-C/XCode compiler works' document and I'll read and understand it.

Ever heard of "Markt und Technik"? I hear they've made half of their money in the last twenty years by selling books on exactly that topic. They're selling their stuff here in Germany, in every damn bookstore, and there's also amazon.de. Can you figure out the rest yourself?


Apart from that, there is *the* book on C. It's called "Kernighan and Ritchie: The C Programming Language". It's been available since 1978. The second edition, if you look up "compilation, separate" in the index, will tell you that pages 80 and 227 describe what you're looking for.

But if I need the same class in my AppController (taking care of my menu and stuff) and again in the PreferenceController (taking care of the preference pane) - then I have to include the header file twice. I thought that there would be a single file where I could include all required header files so that I DONT have to do that.

So much on how truth and that thought relate.

'main.m' is obviously not the place to do that in, and so far nobody has given me a hint (besides your mentioning the build-phase) - Should I delve deeper into the build-phase or should I concern myself with the nitty gritty of how a compiler works when all I want to know is where to put global variables?

Look at Prefix Headers and leave us alone. Please?

I don't understand why this question doesn't relate to cocoa?! I use obj-c to do cocoa programming, don't I? It's like saying gasoline doesn't relate to my engine ;-)

There are newsgroups and mailing lists dedicated to Objective C. Go there if you have questions on Objective C. comp.lang.objective-c and comp.lang.c come to mind. There's also an xCode/Project Builder mailing list at Apple, and dozens of other places where you can be rude to people helping you with on-topic questions. No need to be rude here to people who help you with off-topic questions.


PS - My apologies to all non-Germans on this list. He is rude, I'm being rude to him ... not all Germans are like Ole and me. Promise.
