macOS Post your mac programs!

[twoodcc]

i want to learn more about programs for mac.....and i thought i could learn from some others programs that they've written themselves.....

care to share?

thanks. i already have your program. i'll check out the code

 

[semaja2]

All my projects are open source besides WiFiScriptor so if you want anything from my website you can ask for the latest source code

cool stuff thanks

could someone help me with creating a program that will display the user's current uptime, best uptime, and average uptime? or lead me in the right direction to making it myself?

i know this program isn't very useful.....but it's practicing programming....

thanks in advance

You'll probably want to use the command-line "uptime" command. For running shell commands from Cocoa programs, check out NSTask.

thanks. so to write a mac program, you have to use Cocoa? where would i put the code for it? like what file? the ".m" file, or the ".h" file?

sorry for the noob questions....i've taken a few programming courses, but none with Cocoa....

thanks

First of all, here is a link to programs created by me for OS X. They are not something special, but they are a good start. I provide the source for some of these programs, be sure to check the entire website.

Secondly, these questions you are having can all be answered by visiting Apple's website and downloading documents that concern the Objective C language and Cocoa. You can also install the developer tools on your HD and visit the ADC Library, which contains documentation about all aspects of OS X development.

Seems to me that you need to take a few more programming courses. The "h" file is a header file, used for all C-like languages. The m file is used for Objective-C.

thanks. yeah, i know i need more courses, and i'm taking C# right now. i know the "h" file is a header file, but still, where does the code go?

Your code will go in the .m file. I think your best bet is going to be to go through some Cocoa tutorials at the very least. If you have the time/patience, I'd really recommend picking up Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X (and/or Programming in Objective-C) and working through it.

I wrote DataSnd back in 1994 which converted VOC/WAV files to Sys7 double clickable sound files. A whole 3 people registered it! Woo. Everything since has been either incomplete or for school. As I write software every day for a living (small embedded devices or Linux stuff) I never get much time to do any OSX programming... but I do all my work on a mac!

thanks. yeah i've already looked at a few tutorials and made very simple programs.

if anyone wants to help me get started though, that'd be great

A cool Mac OS X Checkers Program

http://www.onlyperfectcheckers.com

I am working on a cool checkers program for OS X as "practice" for getting to know OS X after a long haitus from Mac programming.

Unlike an "ordinary" checkers program, this one is based on an engine that won the 1997-2001 World Computer Machine vs. Machine Championships that were played in Manchester, England. Back then, it ran on a PC.

This next generation of the program is further refined and much stronger than its predecessors, so it will be deadly. Currently it can announce a win in 253 "ply" (the sum of all moves counted for both sides) using its endgame databases of precomputed wins, totalling over a trillion positions and growing every day.

Perhaps a bit overkill, but it will be cool when it is finished

I am making the database generation code and GUI code Open Source.

Some of the apps I've made can be found here, here, here, and here (all Cocoa).

The Subversion repository is down though, but I will be moving it all to Google Code soon.

Semulov is great, I have been looking for an ejector for a while, it's a good one, pretty much what I'm looking for! The only features I'd like would be integration to make it a startup item from the program itself (which is really minor), and for an option to not eject the CD drive, which is good when you are a laptop user and want to eject your iPod/Flash drive/External HD in one go as you are about to leave the house (again minor, as I never have CD's in my CD drive anyway).

I have just made D&D Manager, which is a DM helper program for Dungeons and Dragons (and makes me a real geek )

that's some pretty cool stuff guys! thanks for sharing.

I'm going through your source code. It seems to just be a razor-blade thin interface that uses the webkit rendering engine to render webpages.

I'd like to talk to you about this project, perhaps I could lend a hand?

I'm not very familiar with webkit, but I imagine that for the one problem you're having with HTTPS pages, there might be a special way that you get webkit to handle those requests and rendering?

Contact me sometime.

It's not really writing a program as it is making a skin for a current program. I made a skin for the dashboard calculator. It doesn't look great, but it's my first skin for it so give me a break .

This is a great thread, but to the checkers guy...your download link is broken. No checkers for Jessica.
