2008-05-27: A short status update

PyObjC development is pretty slow at the moment. I had hoped to release PyObjC 2.1 in March, but that was not to be.

The trunk is slowly moving forward though, but (still) doesn't support OSX 10.4 at the moment. Fixing that is easy, but takes time.

2008-01-07: Updated website

The website has been updated with documentation and examples from PyObjC 2.0.

It is now possible to download examples and view source code in a nice format.

2008-01-06: PyObjC 2.0 included in MacOSX Leopard

Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) contains many new features, one of which is a new major release of PyObjC: PyObjC 2.0.

The NEWS file provides the best overview of new features, the following list is a small overview:

• The package pyobjc is split into several smaller packages, this will make future updates easier.
• PyObjC now supports the bridgesupport metadata format, which makes it easier to support new frameworks without having to write C code. The same metadata format is also used by RubyCocoa.
• Class methods are modelled better, allowing one have a class method and instance method with the same name ( which is used in several occassions in the Cocoa frameworks).

2005-07-06: PyObjC 1.3.7 released

This version features support for Xcode 2.1, an initial port to Intel, wrappers for even more frameworks and several bugfixes.

See the NEWS file for more information.

Bob Ippolito did a session about Python on Mac OS X, and more specifically PyObjC, at WWDC 2005. The web presence for that session is now up at: http://pythonmac.org/wwdc2005/
