I have never used a dual monitor system but a user of my software told  
me that my program is only shown on the primary monitor on his mac  
with dual monitors. Do I need to do anything special to get the  
program to run on dual monitors or doesn't OS X just take care of this  
for me? [...]

Brilliant -- thanks!  (can't believe I forgot that!)

HiliteControl functions, but windows are double-buffered on Mac OS X, so you need to flush the window buffer to the screen in order to see the button hilite. Add a call to QDFlushPortBuffer after each call to HiliteControl.

Title: Simulating button press (i.e, for return) 



Hi everyone, 

Had some legacy code that simulated a button press when the user typed return in a text field.  Wanted to make sure the button was highligted long enough to be seen (the window doesn't go away). [...]

  I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question...

Hello All,   

     

 I am working on client server application. When I unplug the
network cable for server, application running on server should know that its
network is disconnected.   

 Is there any way I can receive signal in my code on server
side, which will tell me that network is disconnected?   

     

 Thanks and Regards,   

 Rahul

the problem was easily corrected by dragging in the iconv lib from the  
SDK instead of from the OS (apple: it's a bug that your tools don't do  
that when i set them to "deployment 10.4")

I'm building on 10.6

Title: How to write application uploading OS/App to the USB device 



Hello, 

I am going to write application which upload OS/App to the barcode scanner (USB). I have already created framework to connect device and Mac OS X. 
I am new to write such an application and have no idea where I should start. 

The application need to send barcode scanner’s application or OS to the barcode scanner, and need to install them on the device.  

Anyone please let me know any sample code or documentation that I can refer?  “iSync” is something I can use? 

Thank you.

As I wrote, covering the desktop with a window of your own making at  
the desktop window level is probably a better choice, because you  
don't have to save and restore the user's desktop picture, and you  
still get to cover a complex desktop picture. [...]

Here is an interesting wrinkle to all of this...if, for example, one
builds the JustPP sample application with the 10.4 SDK, it won't crash.  Build it with the 10.5 or 10.6 SDK and it will crash.          On Nov 4, 2009, at 1:08 PM, Eric Gorr wrote:  > quoted text [...]

If you see a crash in CFRelease, that could mean you're over releasing  
some CF object. Check all your calls that begin with CF and have  
Release in them. Re-read the CF rules of ownership <http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFMemoryMgmt/Concepts/Ownership.html

 Nick: I'm using Microsoft RDP  on Windows machines over 2Mbit DSL
often and    

 have always disabled background pictures.  In my experience
working    

 remote on a machine, I mostly use one application and for
example    

 closing or minimizing the window would uncover the background
picture    

 which results in noticeable hiccups.   

     

 Besides that, even complex GUI compresses a lot better than a
grainy    

 analog picture (the photo of the snow leopard would be a
nightmare in    

 that regard) ... e.g. an GUI area with a vertical color or
grayscale    

 gradient will still compress easily because a whole horizontal
line is    

 still a bunch of pixels in the same color.   

     

 Ø  Same observation
here Nick. Great Catch.   

     

 Thanks

Yes it is. But the user can cause the same issue by arranging windows  
to create a complex image. If this is causing an issue, then you are  
probably key framing too often.

I looked up kEventParamAccessibleAttributeName in the headers and it

If you want to create custom events or add custom parameters to

necessary). [...]

You're almost there:  
 SetEventParameter( eventRef, kEventParamAccessibleAttributeName,
typeCFStringRef, sizeof(CFStringRef), &cfString);  
 When handling the event:  
GetEventParameter( eventRef, kEventParamAccessibleAttributeName,  
typeCFStringRef, nil, sizeof( CFStringRef ), nil, &cfString ); 

 ... use string
CFRelease(cfString)  
 or maybe  
 CFRetain(cfString)
... use string
CFRelease(cfString)  
in which case the sender of the event can keep using the string too  
and release it eventually.

I created a customized event,but I do not know how to set parameters with it... 
 at the right now,my code is: 
   
 EventRef eventRef; 
 CreateEvent(NULL,kEventClassTimer,kEventTimerFire,0,kEventAttributeNone,&eventRef); SetEventParameter( eventRef, kEventParamAccessibleAttributeName, typeCFStringRef, sizeof(CFStringRef), mask); 
   
 Is it wrong? 
 what should i do????
