Greetings.
I'm trying to use GNUstep Renaissance as a means of designing user
interfaces for Mac OS X applications (because Interface Builder's
lack of support for assistive technology for the blind is driving me
up a wall 'cause, well, I'm blind, and because Apple has decided that
blind people are more likely to want to use iTunes than Interface
Builder (how could they *THINK* such things!), because candor
compells me to admit that Apple's probably right on that one, and
because waiting for Apple to add support for Interface Builder to
their screen reader for OS X is not an option (because I only have so
much lifespan)). At any rate, I'm trying to figure out how to
instantiate, say, a NSProgressIndicator object (which I'm presuming
is specific to OS X), with code such as the following:
<gsmarkup>
<objects>
<window title="foo"/>
<vbox>
...
< view instanceOf="NSProgressIndicator" height=12/>
...
</vbox>
</window>
</objects>
</gsmarkup>
I can't instantiate ANYTHING, by the looks of things, using the
instanceOf attribute either with the "instance" or "view" tag (I also
attempted to instantiate an NSButton object per one of the
examples). No joy. Just an empty window.
Also, in an attempt to compile Renaissance from source, which led to
an attempt to get GNUstep Make, which led to an attempt to get
GNUstep Startup, I got an error telling me that the system couldn't
use my Objective-C compiler to make binaries. Is the Apple gcc
incompatible with building GNUstep and, if I completely replaced it
with the FSF compiler, would it break Apple's toolchain? I was under
the strange impression that they were equivalent.
