Re: Retrieving Boolean from database

Thanks Clark Cox, Now it is working fine. I also need to retrieve all the values where this Boolean value is True. I tried the Query like both: QuickLiteCursor * cursor = [db performQuery:[NSString stringWithFormat: @"select * from Contact where UseDefault = 1 "]]; and QuickLiteCursor * cursor = [

Re: NSTextField as a CALayer

No, you can't do this. Core Animation is designed for easy animation, but not so you can freely mix views and layers like this. you could probably do what you want by doing your current CALayer drawing into an NSView, and then add the textfield as a subview of that view.. then turn on lay

Programatically creating iDisk URL

Retrieving Boolean from database

Hi, I'm using QuickLite database to hold some data. I created one column as Boolean to hold the state of a Checkbox and I inserted the values to the table. But whenever I'm retrieving the values from database the Boolean value is return only 1 and so I can't set the state of the Checkbox correctly.

Re: CFMessagePort and GC

Also, forgot to mention: calling either objc_collect_if_needed() or [[NSGarbageCollector defaultCollector] collectExhaustively] after releasing the run loop source and message port doesn't force an immediate deallocation. Not sure why. On Nov 30, 2008, at 9:15 PM, Ryan Brown wrote: Hi, W

CFMessagePort and GC

Hi, When a local CFMessagePort is invalidated it's underlying CFMachPort isn't immediately invalidated. Instead, the mach port is invalided when the message port is deallocated. I gleaned this by reading through the CFMessagePort source code (the reason given in CFMessagePortInvalidate()

Another way of doing this: Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X talks about this specific thing. It's either the second-to-last or the last chapter, and it's entitled "NSTask."It allows you to wrap around a shell command and get stdout and stderr. Obviously, if there's a framework, that's best, but t
