Programming with Quartz Have a Superb Understanding of Their Subject Matter, but They Have Conveyed Their Knowledge in a Clear, Concise, and Readable Manner I strongly encourage non-Macintosh programmers to pick up this book and find out for themselves what a truly great development platform we have in the Macintosh. Programmers and software managers at Windows, Linux, and Unix shops should seriously consider the Macintosh as an addition to (or replacement for!) their current stable of platforms. In particular, movie studios, animation houses, and special-effects facilities would do well to consider that with Macintosh, a single platform can provide every- thing they need…. —from the foreword by Philip J. Schneider R&D Engineer, Industrial Light + Magic Finally, the book I’ve wanted for years is here! As a graphics pro- grammer, I appreciate the clear explanations of how Quartz has packaged the state of the art for mere mortals. As a Cocoa pro- grammer, I appreciate the clear explanation of which [Quartz] facilities…Cocoa is already leveraging. This will become a well- thumbed resource for all graphics programmers on Mac OS X, whether or not they’re using Cocoa, Carbon, or porting code from another platform. —Dr. Michael B. Johnson Pixar Animation Studios I’ve been using Quartz since the first release of Mac OS X, and this book covers it all! Great advice, good sample code—it’s the book to have if you want to learn everything about Quartz. —Stephane Marcouiller SDE, Microsoft Corporation Not only do the authors of Programming with Quartz have a superb understanding of their subject matter, but they have conveyed their knowledge in a clear, concise, and readable manner. Program- ming with Quartz has saved me quite a bit of time on my first major Quartz project, and its more general lessons on graphics programming techniques and concepts will prove valuable when using any modern graphics API. —Josh Aas Software Engineer, Mozilla Corporation Even after implementing several features using Quartz, I still learned things from this book that I did not know. For example, the chapter on handling PDF images is very thorough in its descriptions and the issues it raises. I wish I had this chapter when I implemented this feature. The book is very well written and covers many complex topics in 2D graphics clearly and at a level appropriate for all programmers. Programming with Quartz contin- ues Apple's tradition of producing excellent documentation for its developers. —Ron Ullmann Macintosh Business Unit, Microsoft Corporation Programming with Quartz 2D and PDF Graphics in Mac OS X David Gelphman Bunny Laden Senior Editor Tim Cox Publishing Services Manager Simon Crump Project Manager Elisabeth Beller Assistant Editor Rick Camp Editorial Assistant Jessica Evans Cover Design Laurie Anderson Cover Image © Digital Vision/Getty Images (photographer, Chris Knapton) Text Design Rebecca Evans Composition Nancy Logan Technical Illustration Dartmouth Publishing, Inc.; Apple Copyeditor Yonie Overton Proofreader Jennifer McClain Indexer Steve Rath Interior and Cover Printer Transcontinental Interglobe © 2006 by Apple Computer, Inc.

  • Programming Java for OS X
    Programming Java for OS X hat’s so different about Java on a Mac? Pure Java applica- tions run on any operating system that supports Java. W Popular Java tools run on OS X. From the developer’s point of view, Java is Java, no matter where it runs. Users do not agree. To an OS X user, pure Java applications that ignore the feel and features of OS X are less desirable, meaning the customers will take their money elsewhere. Fewer sales translates into unhappy managers and all the awkwardness that follows. In this book, I show how to build GUIs that feel and behave like OS X users expect them to behave. I explain development tools and libraries found on the Mac. I explore bundling of Java applications for deployment on OS X. I also discuss interfacing Java with other languages commonly used on the Mac. This chapter is about the background and basics of Java develop- ment on OS X. I explain the history of Java development. I show you around Apple’s developer Web site. Finally, I go over the IDEs commonly used for Java development on the Mac. In This Chapter Reviewing Apple Java History Exploring the history of Apple embraced Java technologies long before the first version of Java on Apple computers OS X graced a blue and white Mac tower. Refugees from the old Installing developer tan Macs of the 1990s may vaguely remember using what was tools on OS X called the MRJ when their PC counterparts were busy using JVMs. Looking at the MRJ stands for Mac OS Runtime for Java.

  • Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X
    1 Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X "Most ideas come from previous ideas." Alan Curtis Kay The Mac OS X operating system represents a rather successful coming together of paradigms, ideologies, and technologies that have often resisted each other in the past. A good example is the cordial relationship that exists between the command-line and graphical interfaces in Mac OS X. The system is a result of the trials and tribulations of Apple and NeXT, as well as their user and developer communities. Mac OS X exemplifies how a capable system can result from the direct or indirect efforts of corporations, academic and research communities, the Open Source and Free Software movements, and, of course, individuals. Apple has been around since 1976, and many accounts of its history have been told. If the story of Apple as a company is fascinating, so is the technical history of Apple's operating systems. In this chapter,[1] we will trace the history of Mac OS X, discussing several technologies whose confluence eventually led to the modern-day Apple operating system. [1] This book's accompanying web site (www.osxbook.com) provides a more detailed technical history of all of Apple's operating systems. 1 2 2 1 1.1. Apple's Quest for the[2] Operating System [2] Whereas the word "the" is used here to designate prominence and desirability, it is an interesting coincidence that "THE" was the name of a multiprogramming system described by Edsger W. Dijkstra in a 1968 paper. It was March 1988. The Macintosh had been around for four years.

  • Mac OS X: an Introduction for Support Providers
    Mac OS X: An Introduction for Support Providers Course Information Purpose of Course Mac OS X is the next-generation Macintosh operating system, utilizing a highly robust UNIX core with a brand new simplified user experience. It is the first successful attempt to provide a fully-functional graphical user experience in such an implementation without requiring the user to know or understand UNIX. This course is designed to provide a theoretical foundation for support providers seeking to provide user support for Mac OS X. It assumes the student has performed this role for Mac OS 9, and seeks to ground the student in Mac OS X using Mac OS 9 terms and concepts. Author: Robert Dorsett, manager, AppleCare Product Training & Readiness. Module Length: 2 hours Audience: Phone support, Apple Solutions Experts, Service Providers. Prerequisites: Experience supporting Mac OS 9 Course map: Operating Systems 101 Mac OS 9 and Cooperative Multitasking Mac OS X: Pre-emptive Multitasking and Protected Memory.
