11:09 | < [R]> | <McMartin> I've been trying to collect official Apple documentation that is cited heavily by everyone including themselves, but that they took down at some point in the past six months <-- that reminds me of when I actually tried to do win32 dev, started bookmarking MSDN heavily since finding shit was a PITA. They changed all the URLs. Refound most things and rebookmarked them. Then they changed the URLs again, by which time I had already started looking into |
11:09 | < [R]> | Linux... |
11:24 | <@TheWatcher> | You actually bookmark things?!~ |
11:29 | < [R]> | Used to |
11:33 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, this isn't just "changed all the URLs", this is "their own documentation isn't properly crossreferenced and the target document does not appear in their master search" |
11:34 | <&McMartin> | On the plus side, I have *also* located a MOD I had previously heard in several places but could not actually locate. |
11:34 | <&McMartin> | It is "Her 11", by Estrayk, most prominently featured in the Lyle in Cube Sector OST but apparently predating it. |
11:34 | | * gnolam sighs. |
11:35 | <@gnolam> | I have just realized I pretty much have to make my own vector editor to properly implement this feature. >_< |
11:37 | < Wulfric> | Can you guys recommend a good advanced Swing tutorial? I know the basics (well, some of them), but it feels as though I'm gravely misusing the damn thing. |
11:40 | <&McMartin> | Sarcastic answer: "That means you're doing it right!" |
11:40 | <&McMartin> | Less sarcastic answer: I used to use it semi-extenisvely and I learned from the O'Reilly book "Java Swing" |
11:40 | <&McMartin> | Though that's also got a lot of reference in it; it is a Mighty Codex |
11:43 | <@TheWatcher> | Semi-sarcastic answer: does you code actually work and show the UI you want? If so, just go with it, because there is no sanity to be found by going further. |
12:15 | < Wulfric> | TheWatcher: No, it does not. |
12:16 | < Wulfric> | It's a mess, and that which works I don't know why it works. |
12:20 | <&McMartin> | Have you at least run through the Swing Tutorials on Oracle's docs site? |
12:20 | <&McMartin> | That's probably the "fastest" answer if you haven't |
12:21 | <&McMartin> | ( http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/ ) |

12:34 | < Wulfric> | Not exactly. I've been running off half-remembered university material, and reference. |
12:37 | <&McMartin> | I'd have a spin through their tutorial then, skimming or slowing down when necessary. If nothing else it'll expose you to sample code that is Swing used as intended |
12:38 | < Wulfric> | OK. |

22:15 | <&McMartin> | Oy. Hey, guess what URL suddenly is valid this afternoon: |
22:15 | <&McMartin> | Protip: It's the one I needed valid *yesterday* |
22:16 | | Kindamoody is now known as Kindamoody[zZz] |
22:22 | < [R]> | One of their servers must have crashed |
22:23 | <&McMartin> | I'm kind of astonished that a server crash would result in documents being purged from your own internal search results |
22:25 | < [R]> | I could see that, assuming your search engine offloaded the work to all the storage servers and just consolodated the results |
22:26 | < [R]> | It's somewhat like what Google does... just lacking the insane redundancy that makes theirs work. |
22:29 | <&McMartin> | It also doesn't help when you're Apple and have a long and well-documented history of shoving two-year-old APIs entirely down the memory hole |
22:30 | <&McMartin> | "If we document it, people might use it, and we can't have that." |
22:30 | <&McMartin> | "We want them using Storyboards and Swift, let's purge all references to programmatically interfacing with UIKit in Objective-C" |
22:30 | <&McMartin> | Turns out the latter isn't quite on deck yet, but. |
22:30 | < [R]> | Eww |
22:31 | <&McMartin> | So I figured they'd just purged information about actually interoperating with View Controllers to get people to stop trying to do that, hence, archive.org |
22:31 | <&McMartin> | It appears that this time my cynicism was misplaced |
22:31 | < [R]> | This is why offline documentation wins. |
22:32 | <&McMartin> | There is in fact still no "introduction to iOS programming" document that is actually written for ObjC programmers now. |
22:32 | <&McMartin> | Sort of! |
22:32 | <&McMartin> | Apple has also made the mysterious choice of making most of the API reference basically be PDF |
22:32 | <&McMartin> | Except I can only find the PDF links when I load the same pages on archive.org, so I assume that is some kind of cookie or browser config thing. |
22:33 | < [R]> | Remember when offline documentation/help was called online documentation/help? |
22:33 | <&McMartin> | Sure, because you were at a computer. |
22:33 | < [R]> | :p |
22:33 | <&McMartin> | As opposed to facing an entire bookshelf full of identical spiral-bound notebooks |
22:33 | <&McMartin> | Not gonna lie - I'm old enough to remember those days, albeit as a child |
22:33 | <&McMartin> | I'm glad to have missed them. My paper references have always managed to fit in a backpack. |
22:34 | <&McMartin> | ... A big backpack. |
22:34 | | * McMartin is reminded how large the IBM DOS 2.1 + BASICA documentation was. |
22:35 | < [R]> | I miss backpacks, I'd never use the provided lockers, as such I'd go through 3 backpacks in 2 years. |
