‘Give Away Code’ starts

Today I finally start the “give away code” section on this blog. During development of Searchlight. I faced a lot of minor and major problems. For some of them there were solutions in forums and wikis.

By all means it took time to solve these problems. As a contribution to the community I decided to give away this code. Chances are high that other people are having the same problems as I had. I also hope that people are giving me feedback about the code to be able to learn.

Giving away code is more than publishing some source file on the web. I want to put this code snippets in sample projects to make it easy to play with it. This takes time and therefore I cannot guarantee when I publish the next snippet.

Topics that will be adressed are (in no particular order):

  • NSTask glitches
  • Open Directory and User authentication
  • Spotlight API
  • File Permissions
  • Ruby and Cocoa Bridge
  • and more

You can download the source code from the Source Code page.

stay tuned
