I'm pleased to announce that a number of entirely new and
substantially updated Cocoa conceptual documents are now available at
developer.apple.com. These are:
Cocoa Fundamentals Guide: Collects together several separate documents
that were previously posted on the site, adds additional material, and
serves it up in a single package. The goal of this document is to be
the one place you can point a newcomer to Cocoa that will give them
the grounding they need to become an effective Cocoa developer.
Cocoa Drawing Guide: A new document on how to draw in Cocoa. Covers
integration with Quartz and OpenGL as well as native Cocoa drawing
code. We hope that this provides a great starting point for folks who
want to draw to the screen in a Cocoa application.
Cocoa Scripting Guide: A new document on how to make your Cocoa
application scriptable. Important information for any application that
wants to allow end users to integrate its functionality into their
workflow.
Views Programming Guide for Cocoa: A new document on how views work in
Cocoa. This is more focused on the specifics of NSView than Cocoa
Drawing Guide, and covers the details you need to make views work for
you.
Scroll View Programming Guide for Cocoa: A new document on how to deal
with scroll views in Cocoa. Information about dealing with scroll
views, gathered up in one place.
Document-Based Applications Overview: Updated (at long last!) with
information on how the new NSError-passing routines in Tiger work,
plus numerous other enhancements and bug fixes.
I hope you find these documents useful! Please feel free to provide us
with feedback using the feedback links at the bottom of each page on
the website or locally in Xcode. (You'll need to download the March
ADC Reference Library package, when available, to see these new and
updated documents from within Xcode.) We've made a big push on these
Cocoa conceptual documents, and while there's always more to do, we're
quite hopeful that these documents will answer some longstanding
questions and serve as good starting points for new Cocoa developers.
Let us know what you think!
