As many of you have noticed, Chad McQuinn is not a .Mac subscriber so the old download site for this plugin is no more. You can now find it at <http://chadmcquinn.home.insightbb.com/osxutils/> Currently you will find the last release, which was 1.2, as well as a new beta version that I hope fixes the bugs that some of you have reported over the months since the last release (and especially since the release of OS 10.2). Those of you wanting stable software should stick with the release version. But if you are brave, or if you can't wait to try out now features or see if your bug got fixed, please try the beta and report back to me any problems you find. Some changes in the beta: New plugins: MFolderItemExtension adds some extensions to the folderitem class for working with MacBinary data, as well as adds some convenience methods from Mfile. MMemoryblockExtension allows you to compress the contents of a memoryblock with zlib. This works on PPC and Carbon as well as on Win32. It is the only plugin that doesn't require Carbon. MPrefs plugin for working with the CoreFoundation Preferences services (.plists files in the Preferences directory). All plugins now include "dummy" routines for Win32 as well as PPC. This means you should have fewer problems convincing RB that your Win32 build doesn't really need the Mdock plugin (for example); you must still never try to use the functions from Win32 (obviously), but build errors should go away. Several bug fixes. Enjoy. __________________________ Please visit our sponsors: RadGad(sm): The Place for Useful Gifts & Gadgets.(sm) http://www.radgad.com/, mailto:info@;radgad.com, or 877-5-RADGAD MacTech(r) Magazine: The journal of Macintosh technology and development http://www.mactech.com, mailto:info@;mactech.com, or 805-494-9797 DevDepot(sm): Your Source for RAM, Technical & Developer Products http://www.devdepot.com, mailto:info@;devdepot.com or call 877-DEPOT-NOW To submit a posting to MacDev-1, mailto:press_releases@;mactech.com.
