Without this fix, if you ran `nib2cib` on its own on your UI files you could get a different result than what `jake release` or `jake deploy` would produce. In particular the `NSClasses` setting would be ignored unless `jake release` was used.
The reason for this bug was that the main bundle was never loaded and so the `Info.plist` was not read. But when using `jake release` (and deploy) the main bundle and the `Info.plist` gets baked in so it's always automatically loaded.
The fix is to load the main bundle before checking its settings.
Previously, nib2cib would not correctly calculate the app/resource directories if the xib was in a subdirectory of Resources. Also, image resources in subdirectories did not have the subdirectory encoded with the image name.
Now xibs and images may be anywhere under Resources.
Fixes#1960.
Previously error messages would always be colorized, which doesn't work well if you are piping the output.
Passing --no-colors turns off all colors in the output.
* State *
Previously the Converter class needlessly copied a whole bunch of state from the Nib2Cib class, which was not only poor factoring, but made for easy omissions of state when instantiating a new Converter, such as was done in NSNib.j.
This commit pushes all state not specific to Converter up to Nib2Cib. This allowed removal of redundant code in NSNib -NS_initWithCoder.
* Resources *
Previously it was not possible to use custom images that were located in a framework, because only the app's Resources directory was searched.
This commit automatically searches all frameworks for Resources directories. When a custom image is specified in Xcode, first the app's Resources directory is searched, then all framework Resource directories. Alternately, the specific framework to use can be specified in Xcode by using the form framework@image.
At runtime, the framework is loaded by its identifier (as specified in Info.plist), and if there is no identifier, by searching next to the current AppKit framework.
All of this renders the nib2cib -R option completely obsolete, so it was removed from the NibApplication/Jakefile template.
- System fonts now track the currently configured system font at runtime.
- You can specify CPFontCurrentSystemSize as a system font size to track the currently configured system font size at runtime.
- Theme fonts and nib2cib now determine face and size at runtime, there is no need to recompile if the system font is changed in Info.plist.
- All hard-coded references to 12.0 as a system font size have been replaced by the current system font size.
- Added support for User Defined Runtime Attributes in IB.
- Added support for userland NS classes in IB.
- Added support for file-based nib2cib configuration.
- Converted nib2cib to Objective-J from straight Javascript.
- Updated man page for new features.
- Test app.
