The toughest part of learning any new framework is learning the framework&#8217;s terminology and Cocoa&#8217;s no exception. Nibs, outlets, selectors, bindings&#8230; All foreign concepts if you&#8217;ve never worked in Cocoa before. Luckily the online tutorials are fairly good and Apple&#8217;s documentation is excellent.</p> <p>The only problem i&#8217;ve run into so far turned out to be my own damned fault. I&#8217;m doing a lot of the RESTful heavy lifting using <a href="http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk/activeresource/">ActiveResource</a> and it really doesn&#8217;t like receiving NSStrings as parameters. So much so that it crashes the App. No good. No good at all. </p> <p>Remember kids, NSString != ruby string. to_s is your friend.</p> Wed, 19 Sep 2007 19:03:00 -0700 urn:uuid:dcc0f1f4-e874-4e05-9c1e-cedb770dbefc Jeff http://www.baconbear.com/articles/2007/09/19/so-far-so-good rails
