Re: OT: Good books on Cocoa dev? (spellcheck woes)

I second Aaron Hillegass book. I used it before moving to Rev, I also have
Beggining iPhone development from Apress, never seen a bad book by them and
I have like a dozen books from them, all programming related.

:D

Ian,

The look of the spell check dialogue in the RunRevPlanet SpellCheck Stack is
completely "skinnable" so it may be simpler (and much quicker) to make it
look the way you need for your Mac application without learning Cocoa.

In terms of performance, RRP SpellCheck is fast, with over 25,000 words per
second a typical speed for a check.

If the RunRevPlanet SpellCheck Stack doesn't currently meet your needs, any
specific feedback is most welcome, as I work hard to make stacks from
RunRevPlanet do what Revolution users need.

Scott.

Strongly recommend Beginning Mac Programming in Cocoa
http://www.pragprog.com/titles/tibmac/beginning-mac-programming. The
Pragmatic Programmer publishing house hasn't done a bad book (so far)!

I found a good sequence of books when teaching myself iPhone
programming, so here it is:

If you don't know any C, then start with Learn C on the Mac
.
Although some of the later stuff is not really relevant to
Objective-C, you need to know the basics of the syntax.

If you already know some C, then go to Learn Objective-C on the Mac
.

After that, I went to Beginning iPhone Development

but the Mac equivalent is Learn Cocoa on the Mac
.

HTH,
Sarah

OT: Good books on Cocoa dev? (spellcheck woes)

[Ian Wood]

I've got an app coming up which is Mac-only and will involve a lot of  
text entry where spell checking is critical (photographer's metadata  
entry) - no matter which way I look at it the various spellchecking  
workarounds/stacks for Rev just won't cut it as there's no way to make  
them look native enough and keep good performance. although I'd love  
to be proved wrong on that...


So, can anyone recommend a good starting point for Cocoa, for someone  
who's never been past 'Hello World' in XCode? ;-)
