Actually, the build line says -flat_namespace and -undefined warn. The
symbols were *not* found at static link time, I checked. :-( If it had,
then I would be a happy camper. :-)
Well, there are many warnings about those two symbols, actually, most
something like:
ld: warning shared_obj/NSUser.o has external relocation entries in
non-writable section (__TEXT,__text) for symbols:
rest_world
save_world
I'm assuming that these are not talking about defined symbols, but
external symbols (that should be defined somewhere else), though I
admin I don't actually understand what its telling me...

You will never get gcc to build its own libobjc on darwin, some MOTHER
FUCKER at Apple patched the FSF sources (in FSF cvs, not Apple CVS) so
that it would never build on darwin. If you look in the archives for
the gcc mailing list you might find it, i remember reading about it.
I am using Apple's gcc, Panther edition. (3.3)

You better be because that person is a global maintainer on GCC and
he thought he was doing right, I have asked to take over maintainer
of libobjc in GCC and everyone has been supported but no action has
come out of it.
The first thing, I will do is make sure that GNU's libobjc is able to
run on
Darwin and reable it as an option and able to say -fgnu-runtime and
also get
the GNU runtime.
Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

Hi,
I'm trying to read vcard files (example attached) exported from Apple's
Address Book application. I have to use [NSString initWithData:encoding:]
on the file contents, because that's what Apple's interface specifies.
I've got no idea which encoding these things are in... they look like
unicode, because there are two bytes for each character, but when I use
NSUnicodeStringEncoding, the result is garbage (when dumped with NSLog()).
When I use NSAsciiStringEncoding, NSLog() prints the contents just fine,
but the resulting string keeps the extra bytes ([str length] returns 22 for
"BEGIN:VCARD"), so I can't parse the file properly.
Any ideas? I'm thoroughly lost with this encoding stuff.
Thanks in advance,
Björn

Err. Here's the promised example vcard file.

Hi all,
Because of GNUstep core releases, I have decided to create a small StepTalk
0.8.1 release too.
Please note, that the StepTalk homepage has been changed to
steptalk.agentfarms.net.
What is StepTalk?
GNUstep scripting framework. See http://steptalk.agentfarms.net
NEWS in 0.8.1
- Added STConversation object. Basically, it's a conversation with objects
in an environment using a scripting language. The reason for creating this
clas was to open a path for easier remote scripting where you can 'talk in
a conversation' with a remote DO server or application. However, this
remote part is just going to be implemented. See GNUstep Wiki pages for
more information.
- Added ReadlineTranscript (Idea by Alexander Diemand + patch from David
Ayers)
- Renamed, added and deprecated some STEnvironment methods. Methods were
not removed, NSLog warnings were added.
Get it here: http://steptalk.agentfarms.net/download.html
THANKS
Thanks to Alexander Diemand for his testing and comments.
FUTURE
I hope to solve the speed issue. In this release there is nothing new that
is related to the Smalltalk engine, however, work is being done (well,
slowly).
Enjoy,
Stefan Urbanek

I believe you. But here it is broken. To be scrupuolous I tested it on the
other PowerMac I have that runs MkLinux. On that computer, which I use
mostly as a testbed for new MkLinux packages and similar, I have gnustep
"release" built from the tarballs adam publishes and not from CVS. I also
built Gorm "release" that is found on the gnustep site: 0.3.1
I repeat the procedure and woah... the spings come!
But the joy was to come to an abrupt end: I stimulated clicking the springs
a bit and at one point everything freezes as usual. NO click, focus,
nothing. I kill from another console gorm but X11/wmaker remain confused,
mouse clicking doesn't work correctly and the keyboard typing does random
stuff! Restarting X11 solved that.
I repeat the scenario a second time. What it seems that clicking several
times on the springs inside the window works, as soon as aI click two times
or so on an external one: freeze.
On the "CVS" version of everything I get a freeze at the first attempt to
click (the spring doesn't even change state).
The two computers have the same os, dev tools and such isntalled (from the
same cd).
If I leave gorm running with everything freezed, the application continues
to increase its memory consumption.
This is a similar behavior that I found with the infamous button alignment
but, if you rememer. ANd I think it was never solved :-(
There must be something that runs in an allocation loop or so?
bye
Ric
