Object Lesson, Inc. and Prentice Hall are proud to announce the updated release of NEXTSTEP Programming: Concepts and Applications (ISBN 0-13-605916-3), a 600+ pages programming textbook specifically aimed at programmers who wish to write object-oriented applications in NEXTSTEP 3.0. This up-to-date text introduces object-oriented design along with Objective-C, the AppKit, InterfaceBuilder, ProjectBuilder, HeaderViewer, and other new features of NEXTSTEP 3.0. Other topics include: * object-oriented design tools including CRC cards, message diagrams, etc. * porting applications to NEXTSTEP/Intel * debugging techniques using Gdb * an extensive list of resources including addresses and contacts for user groups around the world, archive sites, newsgroups, etc. * and much much more!
