Source Code

   

July 30, 2000 -- The version 1.1 source code is now available. My original hope in opening the source to Sweet P was that other RB developers could learn from it, especially the Apple event routines that communicate with Mailsmith. The reality is, however, that I'd be much better served creating a genuine tutorial/example project demonstrating the technique.

Sweet P was developed using Real Software's REALbasic. Source code is therefore in the form of a REALbasic project file, along with assorted resource files. Sweet P 1.1 was compiled with REALbasic version 2.1a17; therefore, the project file will not open in older versions of the RB IDE.

I tend to use a liberal amount of comments throughout my code, but for the most part, you're on your own.

If you're an RB developer, feel free to use code from Sweet P in your own projects.

If you have ideas for working on Sweet P itself, you should consider contacting me first, to avoid duplicating effort. RB's project file format is not conducive to using CVS, so coordination among multiple developers needs to be handled manually.
