I just downloaded the Mac OS X version of RB 4.0.1 (the demo version) after
having been away from RB development for a couple years. The last version I
used was 2.1. Anyway, in an effort to see how far it's come along, I
decided to bring a 2.1 project up to date and compile it for OS X. That
went relatively smoothly. However, I'm getting some very strange behavior
when running my app (and especially when debugging) in the IDE. Icons used
in my app's menus (which are loaded from a resource file) are showing up in
the IDE's menus, the View buttons on the variable watch window expand to
monster size after clicking them, the watch window that's supposed to show
up after clicking the View button doesn't, and when I did get it to show up
(after changing to another app and then switching back to RB), the title of
the watch window for an instance of a Canvas subclass was "Self as". I'm
assuming the name of the class is supposed to be appended.
I'm running OS X v10.1.2 on a 500MHz G4 AGP. Is RB 4.0.1 the most recent
version? Is anyone else experiencing this strange behavior?
Lastly, is there an archive for this list? All archives I've seen
referenced are no longer accessible, including the one mentioned on RS's Web
site.
Thanks for the help,
