Cocoa,mac-app development,objective-c programming books

I have knowledge of C language and little bit of object oriented programming using Java.
Recommend me some books for the topics that I want to learn are given below:
1. Objective-C language learning course.
2. Cocoa Programming using XCode 4
Please recommend books that are readily available in India.
Books that you recommend should have comprehensive knowledge of each topic. 
P.S- I have gone through some of the pages at developer.apple.com on topics like objective-c.Still I require some more knowledge through books.

If you're new to iPhone development, then you should definitely read this first:
My First iPhone App, a Programming Tutorial.
In a nutshell if you want to develop for the iPhone:
You need a Mac Computer of some kind, Mac Mini, iMac, MacBook etc. You cannot develop for the App Store on a Windows or Linux PC.
Join the Free iPhone Developers Program. This gives access to the SDK and Xcode development system which you download and install. It includes an emulator so you can test most apps except those which need hardware such as the camera or GPS.
Pay $99 a year for access to the developer program. This lets you install apps on your own iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad. It also gives earlier access to betas and past versions of the SDK.
Development Process
So you've been developing away and have got a version that runs in the emulator. Next you've paid your $99 and been accepted in the developer's program. This means you can now try your app out on your iPhone. Here is an overview of how you do that. Apple's developer website provides a lot more detail.

  • "view in mac app store" launches World Book

    Running App Store, I've had this problem trying to obtain applications for my MacBook [OS 10.6.8] on several occasions.  I locate the app I want to download, and clicking on the button "view in mac app store" launches the program 2011 World Book, annoying, but blocking my route to obtaining the software I seek.  Please advise.

    Might be the cache...
    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
    Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
    ~ (Tilde) character represents your Home folder
    Restart your Mac. See if that helped.

  • Can anyone use objective-c programming for development without xcode and without mac system?

    I want to develope some programme in windows environment using objective-c coding technology.
    What should I do?
    Without Xcode can we compile the objective-c programme?

    GNUStep can be configured as a Objective C development environment on Windows. We can easily learn the Objective C programming using this GNUStep...... I am sending you the link, verify it. May useful for you....

  • Where can I get a copy (hardcopy or soft) of apple's book "The Objective-C Programming Language"

    I have recently began apple's course "Developing iOS apps" To get through a section I need a copy of Apple's book "The Objective-C Programming Language" Does anybody know how I can get a copy? (I live in Australia) It is really important.

    You use to be able to get it in the iBook store, that's where I got my copy. They had a whole section for Apple Developer Publications.  But I just looked and I dont't see it there now. Not sure is Apple pulled it from the store.

  • Mac App Store app running programs in /usr/bin or /sbin

    Hello,
    The Mac Developer Program License Agreement says:
    3.3.4          All files necessary for the Application to execute must be in the Application bundle submitted to Apple and must be installed by the Mac App Store.
    This precludes using NSTask to run a program in /usr/bin or /sbin to obtain some output. Seems pretty restrictive since there is a lot of good functionality there and most of it without copyright. There is a fine line between running /sbin/md5 on a file to get a hash, and calling md5() in libssl.dylib, making me wonder what is the purpose of the restriction.
    The question, dumb as it may sound given section 3.3.4 of the agreement, is, should I eliminate all code that runs other programs?
    If the Mac App Store app runs without running other programs, but includes other features by running those programs, does it still violate section 3.3.4?
    Has anyone submitted a program that calls others and, if so, was it accepted?
    Thanks

    I've never had a problem with NSTask. In what way is it clunky?
    You have to set it up, launch it, possibly send it data, collect the output, parse it. I have an app circulating around here called EtreCheck that does lots and lots of NSTask. It isn't sandboxed though. The problem is that your NSTask inherits your app sandbox and it may expect to read or write to places that it can't. You can use it, but if there is an alternative in a framework or library, that would be better. I think the biggest problem with NSTask is that they are procedural. You have to start it, run it, wait for it, and then handle the output. You will have to do that in a thread or block.
    I used /sbin/md5 as an example since it has an analog library routine. /usr/bin/cksum is the more direct way to verify file integrity. I would also like to run /usr/bin/compress. Certainly easier than writing & testing LZW or Huffman code.
    I think you could probably run both of those. There may be easier versions around. iOS people can't do any of that so there may be some handy Cocoa libraries that will do just what you need. If you just want to compress data, libz is in the OS and not too terribly difficult to use.
    I will probably just have my app run those programs and describe this in my submission to Apple, If they say no, then I'll code those pieces too.
    I don't think you really have to describe anything other than some of your entitlements. As long as it works on your machine and you aren't calling any private APIs then you should be fine. I was only half-joking before. If you really aren't a fraudster, then you really have nothing to worry about at all.
    I don't know what kind of checks they do for that kind of thing. Pretty much everything I have done so far has some feature that looks like it should be forbidden by the sandbox, but really isn't. I display copyrighted Apple art in ways that aren't normally possible. I launch Terminal. I just released an app that has serious amounts of integration with the Finder. No problems.

  • Anyone recommends a good book for object oriented programming (advanced)

    I am a college student in computer engineering (Software) and have been programming using Java for over a year. I have become really interested in the design of softwares and the "beauty" of object oriented programming, and thus would like to advance my knowledge about the topic (my university offers an advanced oop class but I would have to wait another 6 months to take it). So my question is, could you recommend me any book that covers the subject of object oriented programming extensively? (I have learned most of the oop I know from "An Introduction to Programming and Object Oriented Design Using Java" by Nino and Hosch.
    Thanks in advance

    I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
    Thank you.
