MVC and Cross Platform Programming, pt 1

April 21, 2008

So I thought I’d do some tests of the new screen capturing software I have for my Mac and thought I’d do a topic that was somewhat interesting: basic cross platform development. 

Now before you get all excited, I don’t go into a lot a detail about anything other than showing you a way to hook up a view and controller to a backing C++ model. The good thing is that the same C++ model will be used on both OS X and Vista without any code changes so you’ll at least get to see how things are supposed to work like.

Anyhow, here’s a link to the first part which goes over creating the model for a temperature converter in Xcode and hooking up the controller and view for OS X. The next part will show the view and controller hook up in Vista using C++/CLI and WPF.

Video Part 1: http://www.kiadsoftware.com/videos/C…Videos_pt1.mov.

Warning: the video resolution is quite high as it’s 75% of my screen resolution which makes them 1260×788. The quality is a little poor but should still be readable on this one; it will be better on the next part.
