What is HS?

You do if you want to test APFS, which is only available for SSD or Fusion disks the last time I checked. Admittedly, I haven’t yet checked the release notes for the most recent beta, but I've

This. This. This. This. Create a VM of your current OS. Duplicate it as needed and make changes to each OS image to suit your needs. It’s a massive timesaver with fast SSDs.

One suggestion for testing on a single machine is to use VMware Fusion to create multiple macOS VMs. You will want a system with decent speed, but the environment should do exactly what you need with

This is a follow-up to my question last week. I got my NSNetService + Streams approach more or less working, with one small problem (i’ll get to that). But I also checked out Multipeer

In that light, is my suggestion useless overhead?

You can't assign (or compare) arrays in C/C++. You have two options: (a) Call memcpy: memcpy(&myArray, &_mArray, sizeof(myArray)); (b) Wrap a struct around the array, since structs are copyable.

Can you publish the actual declarations for myArray and mArray? The ones you show aren’t quite legal and will be rejected by C compilers. There isn’t that much different from regular C. In your

Yep. Objective-C is C. You have to know C to be able to program in Objective-C. In C, arrays are not first class objects. So you cannot use = to copy arrays (or to take a reference to an array,

You can save them as NSIntegers in an NSMutableArray. The thing about NSDictionaries and NSArrays is that they need to contain NSObjects that are Cocoa

Hi All, I’ve converted some C code into Objective-C and have some C Array structures like so: int [10][10]) myArray; That I want to store in a Property or iVar inside a Wrapper Class. How do I

Right. You need to keep track of that yourself, like with a Peer class that can hold onto those streams and act as their delegate. NSNetService doesn't really have anything to do with those streams.

I recommend you ask this question in the hated-by-some developer forums (forums.developer.apple.com). Quinn the Eskimo fields questions there most days, and he’s exactly the person to give you the

Hi all, I’m trying to add a peer-to-peer communication feature to a game I’m developing. So far it’s half working, which given the paucity of documentation, I’m actually quite proud

It wouldn’t be a valid filesystem if it didn’t support the system calls like stat() that NSFileManager uses to get file attributes. Now, not every filesystem supports every attribute (you’re not

Breaking stuff isn’t always a red line for Apple, but from your reaction I’ll take it that there’d have been an righteous outcry by now were it the case. I’ve had my head stuck in the sand as

If it did, it would break most apps, so no. —Jens

Apologies if this is a dumb question, but I'm wondering whether we'll still be able to call NSFileManager api's like attributesOfItem and get back things like NSFileReferenceCount and the like. Does

Jens; Thank you for the opportunity to expound on this. See below… A look at the discussion for NSFileHandle’s writeData: method provides the following: "This method raises an exception if the
