I investigated this a bit more and found that "Show Info" under MacOSX
says : "Classic Application" for a new build
and : "Application" for the original Revolution Application
Xray on MacOS X
says : "Classic Application (Carbon for Classic)" for a new build
and : Application (Carbon) for the original Revolution Application
I found that it all has to do with a resource called plst, I changed
it around, copied it from one to the other and could with this
resource change what "Show Info" displayed.
But hat does it do ?!
How can I change my freshly built application under MacOSX so that it uses
the Carbon environment under OS X instead the Carbon environment under OS9 ?
Or is this not the case ?
Very interesting !
Cheers
