Tony Arnold's dev diary - I run The CocoaBots, code Cocoa and love doing both!

Breaking down a crazy big window controller class into a bunch of smaller view controllers. Feels cleaner already.


Battling an NSManagedObjectContext that keeps stealing focus on save:


I should probably just bite the bullet and use the assistive tech frameworks to get window and icon locations on screen.


Massive freaking brainfart when using a mutable and immutable array side-by-side. I'm laughing at myself right now :P


NSTextFieldCell, you have made me sad.


Tomorrow I rewrite the keyboard shortcuts preferences for Hyperspaces 1.1. Now, some sleep.


Just constructed another response about how I'm not as impressed with the iPad as I think I should be. Then deleted it. Needs more baking.


NEEDS MOAR NICER BUTTONS! Time for some drawRect: action.


NSApp vs [NSApplication sharedApplication]: Why would you even use the sharedApplication method?


If I'm unsure of my implementation, I sit down and write it all down - even the dumb "I already know this" stuff. Helps every time.


I don't feel like writing draggable layer code today, but that's the next big item on my list. Videos of dogs in silly hats on youtube time?


@jacobsDevDiary well, you haven't heard me say it out loud, but now you've seen an English speaker tweet it ;)


@jacobsDevDiary I don't see why everything has to be in English. Plenty of wonderful languages with good expressions in them :)


I'm sorry, Cocoa Bindings take me back. It was my atomic properties autoreleasing things, not you!


<khan>COCOA BIIIIINDIIIIINGSSSS!</khan>


Bozhemoi, I think I just found where all the idle memory is going. This is going to require some rethinking.


Lots of house cleaning work today: license URLs, cleaning up Info.plist, UI fixes


Crash fixed. It ended up being missing `removeObserver: forKey:` calls in the deallocation of my CALayer subclasses.


Debugging a crash in sendEvent. It's my fault, but no idea where it's coming from.


No, apparently I won't be playing with Valgrind because it doesn't work under Snow Leopard (even with patches). Bah.
