Apple makes the life of a developer very tough each time it
conjures up some new technique/OS, e.g., carbon, quartz, Intel.
The desire to avoid that very problem is the reason that Andy Green
created the ZooLib application framework:
http://www.zoolib.org/
It is Open Source under the MIT License.
His concern was about being left hanging after doing all the work to
support - in his exact words "Apple's API du jour" - only to have the
API deprecated or even completely withdrawn.
Anyone here remember Bedrock? It was because of Bedrock that Andy
originally wrote ZooLib.
By developing his own API that had a lower layer to bind to whatever
that API du jour might be, when the system API changed he only needed to
write a new lower layer.
For example, ZooLib presently uses Carbon for its Mac OS X support.
When Apple announced that Carbon wouldn't support 64-bit, and that one
must use Cocoa for that, Andy started work on a lower layer that used
Cocoa instead. The upper layer that the client programmer sees remains
the same.
ZooLib hasn't had a proper tarball release in quite some time, but I'm
working on preparing one, which I hope to issue within the next month or
so. For now I would recommend getting the latest code from ZooLib's
Sourceforge CVS:
cvs -d:pserver:email@hidden:/cvsroot/zoolib login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:email@hidden:/cvsroot/zoolib
co -P zoolib
(Each of the above two command lines should be just one line.)
ZooLib also has a Subversion repository. That code isn't ready for use
yet, but the CVS code is pretty stable.
Hope That Helps.
