书籍简介：

Amazon.com There's a reason that a large slice of the open-source movement has defected from running Linux on its laptops to running Mac OS X. The reason is the Unix core that underlies Mac OS X, and the development tools that run on that core. Cocoa makes it easy to create very slick Mac OS X interfaces for software (as well as to create applications in a hurry), and this new edition of Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X does an excellent job of teaching its readers how to put a Cocoa face on top of code (Objective-C code almost exclusively). If you know something about C and/or C++ programming and want to apply your skills to the Mac, this is precisely the book you want. Author Aaron Hillegass teaches a Cocoa class, and his book reads like a demonstration-driven lecture in a computer lab. That is, the book takes a heavily example-centric approach to its subject, beginning with simple announcement windows and proceeding to cover the more advanced controls and object-oriented features of Cocoa and Objective-C. Throughout, he hops back and forth between descriptions of the goal to be accomplished, listings of the code that does the job, and instructions on how to use the Mac OS X development tools to speed the development process. –David Wall Topics covered: How to write software for Mac OS X in Objective-C and, especially, with Cocoa. The new edition shows how to use NSUndoManager, add AppleScript capability to an application, do graphics work with OpenGL, and use Cocoa under Linux using GNUstep. As well, all the basic controls and design patterns are covered. –This text refers to the Paperback edition. Book Info The most comprehensive guide to developing Cocoa available. For the developer new to Cocoa, it provides an excellent introduction that will lead to success with the world's best object-oriented development tools. Softcover. –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From the Back Cover The practical guide everyone says you need! "The most comprehensive guide to developing Cocoa available. For the developer new to Cocoa, it provides an excellent introduction that will lead to success with the world's best object-oriented development tools. For those familiar with Cocoa, the excellent organization and presentation make the book invaluable as a reference tool." –Bill Bumgarner, Cofounder, CodeFab With the arrival of Mac OS X, Apple now has a modern operating system that calls for advanced programming capability. To take full advantage of the exciting and innovative features of OS X, Apple recommends a development framework known as Cocoa. Cocoa is a powerful collection of object-oriented tools and libraries that makes developing applications a much faster process. Mastery of Cocoa is absolutely essential for anyone doing serious development work for the Macintosh. "Mac OS X and Cocoa are going to revolutionize the world of software development in the coming years… Aaron Hillegass's book is without a doubt the best aid to learning this technology." –Erik J. Barzeski, Editor, CocoaDevCentral.com New technologies often have a steep learning curve and do not always come with complete instructions on how to get started or how to overcome common obstacles. Enter Cocoa(R) Programming for Mac(R) OS X, which shows you precisely how to put Cocoa to work. "Reading this book is the absolute best way to learn how to harness the power of this amazing technology." –Andrew Stone, President, Stone Design, www.stone.com Guiding programmers through the key features of Cocoa, this book emphasizes design patterns that enable you to predict the behavior of classes you have never used before. Using a tutorial format, it takes you, step-by-step, through five applications and an InterfaceBuilder palette. Each project introduces several new ideas, and as each concept or technique is discussed, the author, drawing on his own extensive experience, shows you the advantages of working with Cocoa in object-oriented software development environments. 0201726831B11262001 –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. With the arrival of Mac OS X, Apple recommends that all new applications be written using Cocoa. Cocoa is a powerful collection of tools and libraries that will make writing new programs a much faster process. The increased speed does not, however, come for free. The new technologies have a steep learning curve, and Apple's documentation leaves much to be desired. This book will guide you through the ideas and techniques that separate the great Cocoa programmers from the wanna-bes. This book is written for programmers who already know C++ or Java and are curious about Cocoa. The reader is not expected to have any experience with Mac programming. It is a hands-on book and assumes that the reader has access to Mac OS X and the developer tools.

作者简介：

Aaron Hillegas，曾就职于Next和Apple，现在在Big Nerd Ranch主讲Cocoa编程。第一套OpenStep（Cocoa的前身）教程即出自其手。本书基于Aaron在Big Nerd Ranch的教学内容，并融入了他在OpenStep和Cocoa方面15年的工作经验。

书友短评：

@ 幻想 虽然基础，但是写的非常棒 @ wzx725725 cocoa入门必备 @ 蜂蜜绿 还行。 @ [已注销] OS x 基础入门的东西。有些点过时了。还得辅助 xcode 上的 os x core library 来矫正阅读 @ 随候鸟南飞 只是当作入门教程挑简单的看了，对比找到的其他教程来说讲得算是好懂些，后面的部分以后再说吧。ps: 读过和读完果然是2个概念啊。 @ [已注销] 這個不得不給好評 @2011-04-18 11:02:41 @ 饭团 挺好的.. 除了旧了点 @ 匿名用户中 最近在车上看，感觉说的还算清楚。 @ [已注销] OS x 基础入门的东西。有些点过时了。还得辅助 xcode 上的 os x core library 来矫正阅读 @ Perisheroy 不错的入门书 注意是mac os而不是ios 另外主要讲cocoa库的应用和xcode的使用 在这之前最好稍微了解一下objective-c和c的不同 还有就是指南基于xcode3 新的xcode interface稍有改动 问题不大
