I realize this is really, really old...but does anyone have a line on how to get this (or Raphael's other project) to work with Xcode 6? The directory structure has changed and there's no longer any Library/Application-Support/Shared/Xcode folder...there's just a Library/Applicaton-Support/Xcode folder, which on my machine is empty. Tried dragging the folders from Raphael's project into that, seemingly to no effect. Would love any tips. Thanks!

Mmmm don't take it the wrong way but it is not working under Xcode 4..... yeah I know Apple tends to break up things with every update.

I got it working on xcode 3.2.2 (will probably work on newer version). Please see the following post by raphael himself:

Gist: You have to start again and use the GIT files from the link. Do not rely on the automatic installer.

I am seeing the same thing. Any pointers on how to proceed with XCode?

Did anyone get this working in Xcode 3.2.3? (Or even better in 4.0 preview?)
It installs without problems, but when I try to build my project, it does not work.I get:

mkdir: /Users/nacho4d/Desktop/CappuccinoText/build/Debug: File exists
cp: /Developer/Cappuccino/Tools/cxhelper/cxhelper: No such file or directory
/Users/nacho4d/Desktop/CappuccinoText/build/CappuccinoText.build/Debug/... line 4: /Users/nacho4d/Desktop/CappuccinoText/build/Debug/CappuccinoText: No such file or directory

And when following instructions given by Sven Resch ( 3 comments up) I can build it but it will neven end loading. ;( what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for the tips,

I installed the version linked here and of course it doesn't works

Now, I try to instal the new one and create the folder Application SupportDevelopper/Shared/Xcode

re launch Xcode but it's the same result

What the first installer do ?
May I have to re install Xcode ?

Hi all, this blog post is out of date. Don't use the installer package noted in the article.

Grab the new Xcode Template from the following link and follow the installation instructions in the download.
http://github.com/rbartolom...

A few notes on my experience in getting the templates to work correctly.

1. I would recommend copying the folders into the /Library/Application\ Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode folder rather than your ~/Library... to avoid permissions errors.

2. If you intend on using images and setting them in your object attributes in the nib, you MUST do the following:

2.1. Name all of your image attributes with their extension (ex a button image will be "add.tiff"). This will cause IB to display a (?) in the simulated interface, but don't worry it will appear in cappuccino.

2.2. Alter the Build Script in Xcode to tell the nib2cib converter where your image resources are. To do this go to your build targets, and open the Build Application script. Go to line 178, and change it to this:

test $xibFile -nt $cibFile && nib2cib $xibFile -R ./Resources/ || echo "- Interface Builder File '$cibFile' is up-to-date";

Do the same for line 185

test $nibFile -nt $cibFile && nib2cib $nibFile -R ./Resources/ || echo "- Interface Builder File \'$cibFile\' is up-to-date";

This will save you a HEAP of time, i.e less interface coding.

Don't forget to use the Build Results window (Shift-Command-B) and enable the script log to see any errors in the nib conversion as they won't appear anywhere else. You'll be scratching your head as to why your interface doesn't update between builds, when you stick in an cappuccino unsupported cocoa object.

Just did a build|run of an empty project and then added some widget using Interface Builder. Very impressed to see the result of a build|run again afterwards.

Looking forward to trying this out more.

Installed and ran successfully with 3.2.2 on Snow Leopard.

- Install cappuccino first following http://github.com/280north/...
- Install cappuccino-xcode next following http://github.com/rbartolom...
- Create a project in xcode and build|run.

Would really like to see installer working with xCode 3.2.1 on Snow Leopard as well. Under /Developer/Cappuccino the frameworks and tools directories are empty. Selected all 3 options in the installer. Resulting new project will not build.

hello,

I have some problems with this plugin.

First is corrected (problem with cxhelper : use pacifist to extract cxhelper)

but i can't resolve the second problem :

Xcode say

"mkdir: /Users/BiB1/Documents/Cappuccino/firstApp/build/Release: File exists"

Any idea ?

thank you in advance

shouldn't xcode support be top prority? right now it looks like it's up to the mercy of third party developers.

Re: Using xCode to develop in Cappuccino

Klaus — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:18:15 -0000

Is there anybody out there, who got the xcode plugin to work properly with Snow Leopard and xcode 3.2.1? I extracted the cxhelper from the installer package with pacifist and put it into /Developer/Cappuccino/Tools/cxhelper because the installer does not work.

I created a new blank Application from New Project.

But when I hit build (release) I still get an error mkdir /Users/klausk/Klaus-Dokumente/xcode/cappuccino/fourthTry/build/Release/ : File Exists.
And it Stopps.

With build (debug) I get hundreds of errors like this:
2010-03-26 00:07:41.317 fourthTry[42459:903] Argument 0: /Users/klausk/Klaus-Dokumente/xcode/cappuccino/fourthTry/build/Debug/fourthTry
2010-03-26 00:07:41.337 fourthTry[42459:903] Argument 1: --build
2010-03-26 00:07:41.338 fourthTry[42459:903] Argument 2: .web
2010-03-26 00:07:41.338 fourthTry[42459:903] Argument 3: /Developer/Cappuccino/Frameworks
2010-03-26 00:07:41.339 fourthTry[42459:903] Argument 4: index.html
2010-03-26 00:07:41.390 fourthTry[42459:903] is it a nib file /Users/klausk/Klaus-Dokumente/xcode/cappuccino/fourthTry/build/Debug/fourthTry.web
2010-03-26 00:07:41.407 fourthTry[42459:903] recheck check at /Users/klausk/Klaus-Dokumente/xcode/cappuccino/fourthTry/build/Debug/fourthTry.web/AppController.j
2010-03-26 00:07:41.408 fourthTry[42459:903] is it a nib file /Users/klausk/Klaus-Dokumente/xcode/cappuccino/fourthTry/build/Debug/fourthTry.web/AppController.j

Then the Browser shows up with a never ending rotating animating gif.

Any ideas?

It´s not clear to me, where all the different files, packages, frameworks, libs and tools should go.
As I understand xcode should assamble it alltogehter into the build folder.
A tutorial where I have to put what files and the exact location or URL where to get them would be nice.

Thanks

It's probably not compatible. You might want to try the newer plugin
that's in the github repository.

Hi,

I tried to add the tools to Xcode 3.2 under Snow Leopard.
The folders in the Developers/Cappuccino stay empty.

Is it mine bad manipulation or the Cappuccino_Developer_Tools.pkg is not compatible with those versions ?

Another user contributed a new xcode plugin, which is in the source
repository. It should be a lot easier to extend, but it doesn't do
quite as much as the old one just yet.
