OpenStep documentation applies to Rhapsody! That means you can develop OpenStep applications today and use the same source base for
Rhapsody later.
Discovering OPENSTEP: A Developer Tutorial
Introduces programmers to NeXT's OPENSTEP 4.0 Developer product by guiding them through the creation of three applications of increasing complexity. The tutorials demonstrate and explain programming techniques, Objective-C fundamentals, common APIs, and usage of the development tools. Along the way they present summaries of important concepts and paradigms. The book also includes a chapter directing readers to programming resources, further information, and services such as training and support. An appendix offers a concise discussion of object-oriented programming.
Object-Oriented Programming and the Objective-C Language
An introduction to the principles of object-oriented programming in NEXTSTEP and the official description of the Objective-C language. Objective-C is very easy to learn and use, since it adds very little syntax to the C programming language. Its dynamic nature allows you to accomplish things not possible in most other object-oriented languages. For any NEXTSTEP programmer.
Appkit Reference
The complete reference for OpenStep Application kit classes and protocols. The Appkit provides everything the user sees and touches: windows, buttons, formatted text, etc.
Foundation Reference
The complete reference for OpenStep Foundation classes and protocols. Foundation is the heart of any OpenStep application, providing memory management and crucial classes such as NSArray, NSString, and NSThread.
Topics in OPENSTEP Programming
Detailed discussions of the concepts behind the Foundation Kit, the architecture of the OPENSTEP Text System, and the unique Services functionality that allows applications to easily share functionality.
