PBXtra 0.3 is developer tools software developed by culater.net.
Problem:
I don't have the Cocoa API memorized.

Solution:
Flashcards.

Better Solution:
Use the source code indexer to give me some hints...

The PBXtra.bundle adds some some simple symbol searching / completion capabilities to Project Builder for Objective-C. It does this by creating an NSTextView category (PBXtra) and adding a new method called PBXtra_listMatchingSymbols:.

It should be stressed that this is just a thin wrapper around the Project Builder indexing engine and that I haven't written any amazing code to parse Objective-C source code.

Installing

* Copy the PBXtra.pbplugin directory into /Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Plug-ins/
* Copy the PBKeyBinding.dict file into ~/Library/KeyBindings/

You may have to create these directories if they don't exist already.

Note: You can also use the ~/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Plug-ins/ directory, which will only load this plugin when you are logged in. Thanks go to Armin Briegel for pointing this out.

What's New:

  • Repackaged as Project Builder plugin.
    This mac program is freeware, so you can download and use it absolutely free. PBXtra 0.3 supports different languages (including english). It works with Mac OS X.

    Downloading PBXtra 0.3 will take several seconds if you use fast ADSL connection.
