I just moved to a new powerbook and now get this error when compiling a
Cocoa project which compiled fine on my old powerbook:
Error   : Internal Mach-O Importer Error File 'ImportMachO.c' Line 1112

I would prefer to use an xterm for standard in/out when debugging a
command line tool rather than Terminal.app. Has anyone done this?

I tried PPxViewConverter (build 0106) for the first time today on a test
nib file (OS 10.3.3) with one window in it.
PPxViewConverter opened fine and found the window.  I selected it and
clicked the "Convert to XML..." button but nothing happened (and no pobj

I'm getting some weird results from various QuickTime music calls I'm
using, and I wonder if it's because I'm using old system headers? I'm
running CW 8.3 and the QuickTimeMusic.h file included has the version
details:

I'm trying to get a custom compiler and panel to work, based on the
samples. Something that doesn't seem to work is the call to
CWPanelAppendItems. It returns cwNoErr, but later when I call
CWPanelSetItemText it returns cwErrInvalidParameter. The context and

I hope someone is able to help me: this problem is driving me crazy :-(
I'm trying to debug a plug-in (carbon shared library) hosted by
FileMaker Pro 7 (Mach-O application), but unfortunately the debugger
doesn't stop at the breakpoints I've set.

In upgrading to CW 9.2, I've run across some C++ errors from inherited
code that I'm not familiar enough to fix:
The code:
template <typename Iterator>

I ran into a problem a while ago which seems to be related to the
image size of the view that I am using.  I have a class derived from
LView whose image size can grow to more than 32K pixels in length.
When it gets above that length, strange things started to happen.

While writing a DataViewer plugin I noticed that one of the 'features'
that one can return from CanEditVariable is kCWFormatsVariables.
I assumed that this would cause CW to call into the FormatVariable
method which would enable me to provide capabilities beyond what the

I have two different and unrelated projects each one has a file in the
'Rescued Items' group. This files are different and unrelated. If I remove
such file from any of the two projects, every subsequent attempt to reload
the project in IDE leads to crash of IDE. Deleting all ...

i wanted to update cw mac os 8.0 (osx edition) to 8.3 via the 8.2 update. i
downloaded the 8.2 updater from the metrowerk site and when i tried to
install the installer reported an error stating that it could not perform
the installations with error: file not found.

Believe it or not, I just picked up a General Magic DataRover 840 for
20 bucks.  I always wanted to mess around with a Magic Cap device and
here, these many years later, I have a device with which to do it.
So, my guess is that it's virtually impossible to get ahold of the old

Anybody would know a tutorial to do plist ? and what to put in them ?
I'd like to :
get a fixed name for the .app that is launched ( right now if i rename the
app it doesn't work anymore )

 Whenever I make a change to my project's nib file, such as adding a menu
item with a new menu command, the first time I compile and run the change
never goes through.  It seems like I have to compile twice before CW will
see a change I've made in Interface Builder.

I thought I would try to compile a few of the MachO, PowerPlant projects
from the examples folder (9.2); however I'm getting the following:
