There may be more beginners like me, so asking simple and easy
questions it
is always very helpfull for us. All GUIs APIs tend to be huge, so
thats why
some of us prefeer to learn "by example".
That's why Apple has a lot of sample code on developer.apple.com. You
should always attempt to find the answer to your question by using
web-based resources before turning to mailing lists.
Read the moderator message that is posted periodically under the
subject "[Moderator] Cocoa and list resources". It says:
Please bear in mind that there are several thousand subscribers to
the Cocoa-dev list, including many Apple engineers. Every post in
effect costs the Cocoa community hundreds of dollars to process
(and takes time away from the engineers who might be working on the
fix to your bug!).
On top of the community costs, lazy questions have a cost for the
individual poster, in terms of reputation and of the willingness of
others to answer (or even read) further questions from the same
source. You should preserve these resources by only asking questions
after you have made a reasonable attempt at solving the problem
yourself.
