commonPrefixWithString method for CPString

abhinav....@gmail.com (Abhinav) — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 20:22:22 UT

CPString is missing NSString's commonPrefixWithString method that
finds the common prefix between two strings.

Changeable Default Theme through Info.plist

stillf...@gmail.com (Alexander Ljungberg) — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 19:11:42 UT

Hey guys,

I think this might already be in there somewhere from what I heard on
the channel. But I just couldn't find it - so just in case it's not
yet been coded up here's a patch to make the default theme
configurable from the application's Info.plist with the CPDefaultTheme
key.

Bindings branch fixes: insertObject:inArraySortedByDescriptors: and _indexOfObject:sortedByFunction:context

stillf...@gmail.com (Alexander Ljungberg) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 02:42:51 UT

These changes only relate to the Bindings branch, although they are
found in my 'jakebindings' branch which combines the two. I think they
can be lifted cleanly into bindings with no jake carryover.

CPArray insertObject:inArraySortedByDe scriptors: didn't work due to
some typos. Also when given an array like [1, 3, 5] and 2 to insert,

Possible solution to Issue 338 - Currently there isn't a "good" way to save a document with CPSavePanel (non native mode)

sethtr...@gmail.com (Seth Buntin) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 04:55:40 UT

I have updated CPSavePanel to accept a document via it's class method
(now savePanelForDocument:). I don't know if this is the best way to
implement this functionality but there doesn't seem to be a good way
to call proposedFileURLWithDocumentNam e: since it is setup to call
from a CPSavePanel.

Re: Possible solution to copy and paste no longer working in CPTextField

Though something I just noticed - in 280Slides, copying a slide and
then pasting - pasting only works if the slides panel has focus. Is
the paste operation there doing a check on the first responder? If
this is just expected in the application's copy/paste function, then
that takes care of it - I just do a check to see if my copied objects

You simply can't take out the pasteboard element. Try as you might,
it's necessary.

I realized that in most of my test cases, the text field i was pasting
into was a different window than the main window of the app. So if I
copy an object in the app into my pasteboard, then try to paste into a
text field that's in the main window of the app, the text doesn't
paste and instead the application pastes the object in the app's

CPDate Enhancement: NSDate like initWithString and description

stillf...@gmail.com (Alexander Ljungberg) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 02:32:54 UT

A patch to implement NSDate style date parsing for CPDate
initWithString: instead of the JavaScript style.

NSDate style description was also implemented which is the converse of
initWithString.

Unit tests included.

After Ross' changes in the jake branch to make CPTextFields work more
natively (using keyDown/keyUp events passed through the CPApp event
handler), copy and paste within a CPTextField stopped working. The

Interesting, I didn't think of that, might be easier, thanks Ross.

you can use capp gen -l -f to generate a symlinked frameworks folder
in the current directory to make this easier

you don't explicitly need to jake release and jake debug. you can, for
example, only build debug while you are developing.

Yeah, rake is a habit, meant jake.
