Hi,
last night I tried to port WordNet.app (http://www.mulle-
kybernetik.com/software/WordNet) to GNUstep. It's becoming sort of
popular recently (although it's out for a couple of years now) and used
to run on OPENSTEP, Rhapsody and Mac OS X. As always it was pretty
simple to write the GNUmakefile's (thanks Nicola - the makefiles are
really great!). One thing which stopped the porting, however, was some
confusion about the interface files. I knew that there's this nib2gmodel
tool which looked perfect in my case to get the conversion done with
almost no effort. However, my application refused to load the .gmodel
files - the error message (sorry, don't have it here right now) was
something like that the .gmodel format couldn't be validated, with a '^'
character pointing at the end of <plist version="0.9">. I have no clue
what that means.
I then chose to draw the models manually using Gorm.app, but - after
having set the File's Owner to a custom class - was unable to open the
inspector after re-opening that .gorm file. The error message was
something like 'NSDictionary does not respond to length' or something.
Is this a known issue? The .gorm file will load in my application, but
none of the connections are actually being set up (probably because
there's a problem with the File's Owner, so the connection cannot be
made).
Has anybody successfully ported an application consisting of more than
one .nib's (just like WordNet.app) to GNUstep and has any best practices
to share?
Thanks in advance,
Marcus
