Demo 5 -- Growing GUI Extensions with ActiveDeveloper
Activating -- the Calculator Rhapsody example --
The Purpose of this Last Example is to show the ability to InterACTIVE Create New Classes
with ActiveDeveloper. Therefore this Calculator Example isn't just the same as the original
example - but we have both Activated it and also extended the Calculator functionality with a
"Hewlett-Packard" like Calculator mode ... realized with specific NSButton subclasses.
To get InterACTIVE with the Calculator Example, ALL you have to do is:
- Build the Example with ProjectBuilder
- Launch the ActiveDeveloper.app
- Open the Demo's AD.projectimage (by Cmd-o or double-click)
and Launch the Calculator.app using Start
- Start coding away ... with ActiveDeveloper.
When both these apps are running, you can open the extra added NSButton Class files and
the CalcController files, to see how the Reverse Polish Notation Mode was added. If you want
to Play further - try to improve the Polish Stack to a real infinite one using Foundation.

Check the FAQ contained within the Download package.
No more whet teeth - from here the Road goes into your Own Projects.
Have fun ...
