=Overview=
+
The goal of this project is to provide Vision with a cocoa backend to make it truly native on the mac.
+
For more information please refer to the [[Talk:Cocoa_for_EiffelVision2|discussion page]]. See also [[OSX_release_infrastructure]].

=Milestones=
+
 
+
==M1: April 25th==
+
* get EiffelStudio 5.7 compiled under OS X
+
 
+
==M2: May==
+
* Create a GTK based .app package
+
 
+
==M3: end of May==
+
* Get a Vision window displayed with a Carbon window (involves eventloop porting)
+

'''10.06:''' We have now striped down a copy of the gtk vision implementation and started to implement the first few features. The code is still ugly, but you can get it here.  [http://n.ethz.ch/student/dfurrer/files/carbon_start.zip]. A screen shot is at the top of this page :)
+
 
+
'''02.06:''' You can get the simple Carbon example Application, which we try to build in vision, here [http://n.ethz.ch/student/upeter/download/carbon_port/]
+
 
+
'''09.05:''' We have now delegated some tasks:
+
* Eiffel Media Package for Mac (Roland)
+
* GTK based .app package, probably universal (Dani & Maeli)
+
* Look into Carbon application development (Ueli)
+
* Look into wrapping Carbon headers with EWG (Jann)
+
It also seems that using Carbon instead of Cocoa is more realistic for this project, so we'll primarily look into Carbon now.
+
 
+
'''06.05:''' We now have a graphical version of ES 5.7 running on OS X (both ppc and intel). The problem was with the fontconfig libraray: The 2.3.2 version seems to crash where the 2.2.3 works fine. There are still a few problems with fonts sizes though...
+
From what Jann tells me self compilation is also no problem anymore so we can really start hacking the beast now.
+
 
+
 
+
'''30.4''': We have EiffelStudio compiled for ppc and running on ppc and intel macs. The Gtk+ GUI works more or less but some things (like wizards) are missing atm.
+
It required a lot of hacking and we're now trying to get newer builds, and streamline the process for getting a build on the mac.
+
I think the next goal should be to get a self-compiling version of ec so that we can skip building the f_code on linux and then adopt the build-script.
+
 
+
=Documents=
+
I collected a few Documents with introductions to carbon widgets and the carbon event Loop and also a part of the API Refference [http://n.ethz.ch/student/upeter/download/carbon_port/Dokus/].
