Dear Peter,

Forgive me if i'm wrong, but this has nothing to do with dead code stripping, but linking to shared libraries instead, reuse of existing code.

Furthermore, the code you execute, be it in a shared library or in your binary object exists, so the actual code isn't smaller (for the processor)
but is even bigger since linking has to be done each time you launch your application. (ok, the difference isn't that big)


So the saving you do only applies to distribution of your compiled + linked binary file.

Regards.

Hi there

The more use you make of Cocoa objects, the smaller your code remains.
All the Cocoa frameworks ( thus, supporting code ) are there already on the machine !


Leverage !
