Gah.. this isn't just my book, Erik Buck and Don Yacktman always get left out, and that makes me feel very guilty.

I believe that's been discussed on this list before but if I recall correctly, there are no plans to update that particular tome. The material the current edition covers is still *quite* relevant, however and it's still a book you should buy. Now.


thanks..

It simply lacks the latest technologies added in Panther and Tiger (bindings, core data, core image, etc.) and I believe still referenced ProjectBuilder rather than XCode.

yep


Now if Mr. Anguish and Mr. Buck have changed their minds, I'd love to hear about it ... ;-)


I doubt there will be an update. Erik and Don are both hard at work on other things. Me, I'm an Apple employee now, and it'd be a conflict to work on the book. Not that I'd have the time to devote 3-6 months full-time for it anyways. I do write about Cocoa every day, and you get the books for free (I'm in the tech pubs department at Apple, working on Cocoa documentation as part of a great team).

Hi gang,

Does anyone know if there's any plan to release a revised version
of this book any time soon? I've read a lot of good things about
it and will buy it anyways, but just thought if maybe I should wait
a while, seeing that it's now over 3 years old.

I'm a Cocoa and Objective C newbie (with a couple of years
of Java background) who wants to develop a native Mac OS X
application as my thesis work. :)

I subscribe in digest so a direct CC would be greatly appreciated.


Many TIA,
-filipp
