Just a request for a quick sanity check please.

2015-07-14 Thread Alex Zavatone
I'm looking at some Cocoa spaghetti that seems to violate all the laws or reason and I'd just appreciate some verification that "there is no reason whatsoever that a sane Cocoa developer would ever do this" before I go and change this code. Am I correct in assuming that there is no rational rea

If the NSURLConnection in question has been started asynchronously, your described scenario sounds appropriate. In fact, it's what Apple recommends since the class will handle things in the background and only report back on progress. A synchronous request would fall into the questionable realm.

I looked at that, but unless I am mistaken, it allow you to bind Cocoa to C# not the other way round? I want to be able to compile some existing C# code and then call it Cocoa. Cheers Dave > On 14 Jul 2015, at 18:56, Sixten Otto wrote: > > On Tue, Jul 14, 2015 at 10:48 AM, Dave wrote: > >

Snow Leopard 10a432 DMG

I need to support users still on Snow Leopard (I’m on Xcode 6.4 / Yosemite 10.10.4). I’m building using the latest SDK but deployment target is 10.6. As others have noted in the past, the compiler will not warn of any code incompatibilities, so I’m looking to install SL on an external partition.
