Objective-C can wait

Category: Uncategorizedadmin @ 8:20 pm

With no Mac, no Xcode, and no hope of getting a Mac in the near future, Objective-C is going to have to wait. I downloaded OpenFrameworks, and so I’m going to get a little C/C++, but nothing like what I was planning. Perhaps sometime soon…

Objective-C, here I come!

Category: General Programmingadmin @ 6:04 pm

Okay – I know I have zero time for doing anything, but it seems like it’s about time to add insult to injury and learn a new language. I know everyone and their mother’s duck is learning Objective-C, but I want to too. Mrs. Ken even seems excited about it. Any suggestions for my first app? Mayby something with yōkai?

My Head hurts o_O

Category: Flash, Flex & AS3, General Programming, MySQL, PHPadmin @ 12:18 pm

So I’ve got to make this script that will take a list of parented categories (list includes category name, category id, and the parent id of the category – made in MySQL) and create a tree with documents under each category (in Flex with AS3). I think I know how to make the tree, but perhaps I should request the documents as soon as the tree is expanded? Perhaps it could work.

Otherwise, I need to include the documents in the category tree – where they belong. It has been giving me a headache for a long time! When I get it done, I post it here.

Long story short – data visualization sucks!

Flashbelt was fun!

Some cool stuff from Flashbelt:

  • Me getting to introduce Andre Michelle, audio/actionscript genius – (Yes, Andre – compared to me, you are a genius!)
  • Olives and Artichoke hearts for a rocking snack
  • Pleasantly surprised to meet up with Jed

How about a lovely photo of me looking silly? Ask no more:

To answer the question – yes, I’m following along in Flash CS4. The tips and tricks section rocked!
