+ powerful frameworks for creating native desktop applications available on any
109
+ platform today, and Apple gives them away, along with the Xcode development
110
+ environment, for free! However, for a first-time Mac developer, just firing
111
+ up Xcode and starting to browse the documentation can be a daunting task. The
112
+ Objective-C class reference documentation alone would fill thousands of printed
113
+ pages, not to mention all the other tutorials and guides included with Xcode.
114
+ Where do you start? Which classes are you going to need to use? How do you use
115
+ Xcode and the rest of the tools?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This book answers these
116
+ questions and more, helping you find your way through the jungle of classes,
117
+ tools, and new concepts so that you can get started on the next great Mac OS
118
+ X application &lt;em&gt;today&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Jack Nutting&lt;/strong&gt;
119
+ is your guide through this forest; he's lived here for years, and he'll show
120
+ you which boulder to push, which vine to chop, and which stream to float across
121
+ in order to make it through. You will learn not only how to use the components
122
+ of this rich framework, but also which of them fit together, and why.&lt;/p&gt;
123
+ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jack Nutting&lt;/strong&gt;'s approach, combining pragmatic
124
+ problem-solving with a deep respect for the underlying design philosophies contained
125
+ within Cocoa, stems from years of experience using these frameworks. He'll show
126
+ you which parts of your application require you to jump in and code a solution,
127
+ and which parts are best served by letting Cocoa take you where it wants you
128
+ to go. The path over what looks like a mountain of components and APIs has never
129
+ been more thoroughly prepared for your travels. With Jack's guidance, the steep
130
+ learning curve becomes a pleasurable adventure. There is still much work for
131
+ the uninitiated, but by the time you're done, you will be well on your way to
132
+ becoming a Cocoa master.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h3&gt;What you'll learn&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
133
+ \ &lt;li&gt;How to actually make your own Cocoa applications&amp;#151;this
134
+ is much more than just a quick introduction to Cocoa! &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Which
135
+ classes, of the dozens included in Cocoa, are truly central to Cocoa development
136
+ &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How to best use MVC architecture concepts in a Cocoa
137
+ application &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How the various pieces of the Cocoa frameworks
138
+ fit with each other and into the MVC architecture &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Which
139
+ parts of Cocoa truly enable &amp;#147;visual programming&amp;#148;, letting
140
+ you reap the benefits of proven, reusable code libraries that Apple gives you
141
+ for free &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How to recognize recurring design patterns
142
+ used throughout Cocoa, and put them to proper use in your own code &lt;/li&gt;
143
+ \ &lt;li&gt;How to approach Cocoa from different programming environments
144
+ &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;How to use the facilities provided in Snow Leopard
145
+ to create software that distributes itself automatically among all available
146
+ CPUs, improving the user experience for your users. &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt;
147
+ &lt;h3&gt;Who this book is for&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt; Anyone with basic
148
+ understanding of object-oriented programming who wants to try out Mac OS X application
149
+ programming, as well as iPhone developers who want to extend their knowledge
150
+ of Cocoa touch to include the Mac-specific technologies included with Cocoa.

+ Description</Source><Content>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Beginning iPhone 4 Development&lt;/em&gt;
186
+ is here! The authors of the bestselling &lt;em&gt;Beginning iPhone 3 Development&lt;/em&gt;
187
+ are back, with the same excellent material completely updated for iOS 4 and
188
+ written from the ground up using the latest version of Apple's Xcode 3. All
189
+ source code has been updated to use the latest Xcode templates and current APIs,
190
+ and all-new screenshots show Xcode 3 in action.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt;Beginning
191
+ iPhone 4 Development&lt;/em&gt; is a complete course in iOS 4 apps development.
192
+ You'll master techniques that work on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. We start
193
+ with the basics, showing you how to download and install the tools you'll need,
194
+ and how to create your first simple application. Next you'll learn to integrate
195
+ all the interface elements iOS users have come to know and love, such as buttons,
196
+ switches, pickers, toolbars, and sliders. You'll master a variety of design
197
+ patterns, from the simplest single view to complex hierarchical drill-downs.
198
+ The confusing art of table building will be demystified, and you'll learn techniques
199
+ to save and retrieve your data using SQLite, iPhone's built-in database management
200
+ system and Core Data, the standard for persistence that Apple brought to iOS
201
+ with the release of SDK 3.   &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; And there's much more!
202
+ You'll learn to draw using Quartz 2D and OpenGL ES, add multitouch gestural
203
+ support (pinches and swipes) to your applications, and work with the camera,
204
+ photo library, accelerometer, and built-in GPS. You'll discover the fine points
205
+ of application preferences and learn how to localize your apps for multiple
206
+ languages. You'll also learn how to use the new concurrency APIs included in
207
+ iOS 4, and make robust multithreaded applications using Grand Central Dispatch.  
208
+ &lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;The iPhone 4 update to the best-selling
209
+ and most recommended book for Cocoa touch developers   &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Written
210
+ in an accessible, easy-to-follow style   &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Full of useful
211
+ tips and techniques to help you become an iOS pro &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;NOTE:
212
+ For iPhone 4S or iOS 5 apps development, please instead check out the next edition
213
+ of this book, &lt;em&gt;Beginning iOS 5 Development&lt;/em&gt; - now available.&lt;/p&gt;
214
+ &lt;h3&gt;What you'll learn&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Everything you
215
+ need to know to develop your own best-selling iPhone and iPad apps &lt;/li&gt;

+ in programming terms, how to use Objective-C to build program logic, and how
401
+ to write your own applications and apps.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;With over 50 collective
402
+ years in software development and based on an approach pioneered at Carnegie
403
+ Mellon University, the authors have developed a remarkably effective approach
404
+ to learning Objective-C. Since the introduction of Apple's iPhone, the authors
405
+ have taught hundreds of absolute beginners how to develop Mac, iPhone,and iPad
406
+ apps, including many that became popular apps in the iTunes App Store.&lt;/p&gt;
407
+ &lt;h3&gt;What you'll learn&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;The fundamentals
408
+ of computer programming: how to understand variables,design data structures,
409
+ and work with file systems &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;The logic of object-oriented
410
+ programming: how to use Classes, Objects, and Methods &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;The
411
+ flexibility of Apple's developer tools: how to install Xcode and write programs
412
+ in Objective-C &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;The power of Cocoa and Cocoa touch:
413
+ how to make Mac OS X applications or iOS apps that do cool stuff &lt;/li&gt;
414
+ &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;h3&gt;Who this book is for&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt; Everyone!
415
+ This book is for anyone who wants to learn to develop applications for the Mac
416
+ or apps for the iPhone and iPad using the Objective-C programming language.
417

+ Description</Source><Content>&lt;i&gt;Programming in Objective-C&lt;/i&gt; is
457
+ a concise, carefully written tutorial on the basics of Objective-C and object-oriented
458
+ programming for the iOS and Mac platforms.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The book makes
459
+ no assumptions about prior experience with object-oriented programming languages
460
+ or with the C language (which Objective-C is based upon). Because of this, both
461
+ beginners and experienced programmers alike can use this book to quickly and
462
+ effectively learn the fundamentals of Objective-C. Readers can also learn the
463
+ concepts of object-oriented programming without having to first learn all of
464
+ the intricacies of the underlying procedural language (C).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This
465
+ unique approach to learning, combined with many small program examples and exercises
466
+ at the end of each chapter, makes &lt;i&gt;Programming in Objective-C&lt;/i&gt;
467
+ ideally suited for either classroom use or self-study. While the Objective-C
468
+ language itself has gone through relatively minor changes since the introduction
469
+ of Objective-C 2.0, the Apple development tools that programmers use for Objective-C
470
+ development on the Mac and on iOS have changed significantly in a very short
471
+ period of time. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The third edition of &lt;i&gt;Programming
472
+ in Objective-C&lt;/i&gt; includes numerous updates and improvements throughout
473
+ the book:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;li&gt;Improved organization for some chapters&lt;/li&gt;
474
+ &lt;li&gt;Incorporation of feedback and suggestions from members of the author's
475
+ forum for readers, including more detailed descriptions for some of the examples&lt;/li&gt;
476
+ &lt;li&gt;A new introduction to blocks with examples&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Replacement
477
+ of deprecated methods with newer methods&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Updated diagrams
478
+ and steps for using Xcode 4&lt;/li&gt;</Content></EditorialReview></EditorialReviews></Item><Item><ASIN>143027221X</ASIN><DetailPageURL>http://www.amazon.com/Learn-Xcode-Tools-iPhone-Development/dp/143027221X%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJFA5X7RTOKFNPVZQ%26tag%3Dws%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D143027221X</DetailPageURL><ItemLinks><ItemLink><Description>Technical
