- In response to the link from Pierre Blanquero regarding MacApp’s view size
- limitation:
-
- MacApp 2.0 will include a new internal view architecture which will support a
- much bigger view size than the current version. A transcript from the August
- MacApp Developer’s Association meeting which goes over some details of MacApp
- 2.0 was printed (with some screen shots) in the “October” issue of the
- Developer Association newsletter (which the Association tells me was sent out
- bulk mail in early November).
-
- We plan to release beta version of MacApp 2.0 through APDA in the Spring of
- 1988.
-
- A subscription to the MacApp Developer’s Association newsletter costs $20 in
- the US, $30/year outside the U.S. (The Association also sell the MacApp
- Browser for US$39 + $1.50 U.S. postage or $2.50 overseas postage.) You can
- contact them via AppleLink at X0501, or by mail at:

- In response to Alexander Perlis’ link about MacApp, C++, and Smalltalk:
-
- Several developers are currently writing application using MacApp and Object
- Pascal for their user interface code and calling algorithms written in
- [transportable] C.
-
- We plan to release a beta version of MPW 3.0, including full C++, through APDA,
- in the Spring of 1988. At that time we also plan to release interfaces to
- MacApp written in Minimal C++ (formerly C+-). MacApp programs should be able
- to take advantage of all of C++, even though MacApp itself will still be
- implemented in Object Pascal. For more a little more information, see the C++
- article in the July-August issue of the MacApp Developer’s Association
- newsletter.
-
- In 1988 we also plan to release an interpreted Smalltalk system with a
- Macintosh user interface and access to MacApp classes translated into
- Smalltalk.
