First look at Xcode 3 Part 2. Or is that a second look?

Based on the fabulous response I got from my last Xcode 3 demo I decided to do another one. No seriously, great reviews. Just look at what Jeff had to say:

“This sort of shameless pandering and karma whoring is what will serve you so well in your evangelist role. I only wish I could claim first post (it myself). It seems that with the writer’s strike people must be hard up looking for good entertainment.”

I had to tighten up his note, you know space limitations and such. It still pretty much reads the same. Mostly.

This one shows how the new Interface Builder heads up display makes it a lot easier to connect up outlets.

About Grant

I grew up on the mean cul-du-sacs of Troy, Ohio, USA. I first started "programming" at the age of five on an Atari 400 when I used BASIC to draw an ASCII picture of robot with wheels on his feet. Why the emphasis on feet with wheels? At the time it was a big deal, I didn't have wheels on my feet which forced me to walk everywhere. I would have been so much cooler to just skate around. Since then I've gone on to work on all manners of different technologies, but rest assured if I ever write another robot program he won't just be walking around. Perhaps some tank treads...

    It’s nice to see video tutorials for Xcode. I found the examples from Apple confusing for a beginner like me. I made the mistake of trying the calculator example using Xcode and found myself totally confused to the point where I gave up on it. With tutorials like yours I’m beginning to understand the relationships between components of Xcode and although I am still a bit intimidated by the whole thing I’m going to start out by copying your tutorial and seeing if I “Get It” or not. I hope you (or others out there) will continue to produce material like this with other functions of Xcode or perhaps some simple “real world” examples like the calculator or perhaps something simpler like a Celcius to Fahrenheit converter. The more I see and the more explanations as to “Why” I’m doing something sure goes a long way to helping me understand all this.

    Thanks

    Richard

    Very helpful, sir. Can’t thank you enough for providing a no-nonsense introduction to this. I had searched high and low for such a tutorial. Cheers from the UK!
