Mac Forum / Programming / CodeWarrior / January 2004

I coded a little check for the availability of LaunchServices in a
standard Carbon app, as per Apple's TN2017 (there doesn't seem to be a
Gestalt check for this).  The following is from a freshly created
CodeWarrior 9 C Carbon Toolbox stationery project.  The only thing

I need to get the 'icl8' icon from a Mac OS X .icns file. The code I
use is as follows:
    CFStringRef thePath = CFSTR("/Applications/Internet Explorer.app");
    theAppURLRef = CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath(kCFAllocatorDefault,

When linking our large (~27 MB) MachO  application in debug mode we
get the following error:
   Error : relocation offset for address 01007A08 in object
           '___keymgr_dwarf2_register_sections' is out of range

I have stored my menus and menu bar in a nib file using Interface
Builder.
I would like to get at these menus so that I can (for example) check and
uncheck menu items in response to user input.

I need to know how to fill in the 'Remote Hosts' session settings.  I keep
getting a message "Some remote host information is missing.  Please check
the Remote host options' panel in the session settings.  I get this message
whenever I try to do an "import" from the Action Menu.  I ...

I was debugging something in my program and noticed my debug logs files
weren't getting flushed to disk.  I'm using C++ standard I/O calls to do
the logging.  I can reproduce it with the following program(I created my
test project with the Carbon C++ Console stationary):

I am using CW 8.3 in Mac OS 10.3.2. Both have been installed in English.
When I compile and run my application (let's call it 'MyApp'), the first
menu bar item is created automatically by CodeWarrior. It is named
'MyApp' and the items contained in there are:

I'm trying to port an application developed for OS 9 in conjunction with an
Oracle Client to the new OS X using Carbon in a Metrowerks Codewarrior
environment.
The new OS X client libraries provided by Oracle are based on Darvin and

I'm using Newsflash to attempt to participate in the CW newsgroups, but it doesn't seem to work that well. I've also tried another that wanted money but sucked, and the author wasn't very helpful.
What other options are there for participating in this group? I'd really rather it ...

The following test code was done on CW9 and OSX 10.3.2
void DoTest()
{
    Ptr p = NewPtr(1);

We plan to set up a dedicated build machine in our dev department and I am wondering whether a dual processor Mac would shorten compilation time compared to a single processor machine. We are currently using CW 9.1 on Max OS X 10.3.1.
Thanks,

What do you think of the idea of std::vector optimisations predicated on
whether the value_type has a swap() function?
The idea is that instead of using copy_backward() to shuffle existing
container items into the right place, a similar function could be used

I wonder if anybody could give me some advice on writing a plugin. What I
want to do is to insert short sections of diagnostic code at various points
within a C/C++ program compiled under CW (in a similar way to the profiler
calls that can be added to a function). I don't want this ...

I'm building a Carbon application with CodeWarrrior, and later, if I
get this all to work,  a Carbon Shared Library.
At the moment, I am trying to incorporate Bigloo into this
application.  I downloaded its sources, ran Make, and compiled it.

How can I get the OS Version in C++ ? (I need to know if it s 10.1 or
10.2 or 10.3)
Thanks a lot,
