Atlas – Cappuccino (Objective-J)

fernyb — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 23:14:57 +0000

Atlas is like Xcode. Atlas is built with Cappuccino and Cappuccino is built using a language called Objective-J which is just a superset of JavaScript and its very cool! Just like Objective-C is a superset of C. The best thing I like about it is that it’s so much like Cocoa and Objective-C. The syntax [...]

Rails 2.3.5 on Dreamhost (Shared Hosting)

fernyb — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 03:35:10 +0000

Today, I started a new project. A minimalistic bug tracker that should really work under Dreamhost. The only reason I need this to work on Dreamhost is because bills begin to add up after having a few VPS accounts and I’m trying to cut my spending and since Dreamhost gives me unlimited disk space and [...]

iPhone SDK 3.0 GM

fernyb — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 05:26:03 +0000

While looking into my app for deprecated methods I have found one that did not have much documentation to it. It was a delegate method from UIImagePickerControllerDelegate and this is the way I use it for when an image is ready to be posted. - (void)imagePickerController: (UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage: (UIImage *)img editingInfo: (NSDictionary *)editInfo { [...]

Skatr for iPhone

fernyb — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 04:23:37 +0000

It’s been a little over 4 months of development for my iPhone app. This does not mean just coding for the iPhone app but also working on the back-end server side, creating an API for Skatr to use, and later become a public API for others to consume. Things I did for the 4 months of [...]

My First Macintosh

fernyb — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 19:42:36 +0000

So, I got this flash back and it reminded me of my first computer I’ve ever had and how I wanted one. I was 8 years old and as most kids do on weekend mornings watch cartoons, I somehow was watching a commercial for the Macintosh Performa and I guess it just made me think [...]

fernyb — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 21:26:27 +0000

Lately, I’ve learned how to use GDB with XCode and it’s awesome! It really saves your lots of time debugging an app. I was having lots of trouble trying to figure out why an instance variable was not retaining it’s value in a new method. Well, it happen to be I was using a UITableViewDelegate and [...]
