CodeWarrior Development Studio for Mac OS v10
Available only as a Download version has two versions
A free Special Edition allows for students and hobbyist to use
CodeWarrior with a limited usage license, with no technical support
The CodeWarrior Professional download is only $99 (plus shipping and
handling and applicable taxes) and will allow all former Macintosh
developers to update and archive their Mach-O and CFM/ PEF projects.
Detailed Features
General
* Mac OS X hosted
* Targets: Mac OS X (Mach-O) and Classic Mac OS (PEF)
* PowerPlant X C++ Framework for Mac OS X development with Carbon
Events, HIViews and Unicode support
Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
* Text-based xml projects (optional via user preference)
* Packager support updated so that it is no longer necessary to
make changes for packaging in multiple targets - added ability to have a
master packaging target to perform common package actions
Power Plant
* PPx can now directly deal with .nib files
* PPx can deal with SearchField, SegmentedView, TextView
(HIView-savvy replacement for MLTEView), and UserPane
* New PPx wrappers for CGClorSpace, CGDataProvider, and CGImage
* Enhanced support for the DataBrowser control
* PPxNavServices allows the addition of custom filter and preview
callbacks
* PowerPlant, PowerPlant X, and Constructor will be put into open
source.
C/C++ PowerPC Compiler 4.0
* New interprocedural analysis (IPA) for file level or whole
program optimizations
* Modified inliner for true bottom-up inlining when using IPA
* Improved template instantiation error messages
* Updated POD detection to conform to C++03 standard
* Support for out-of-line defined partial class template
specializations
Metrowerks Standard Library 11.0
* Implemented "safer" (a.k.a. "secure") library extensions being
proposed by the C0x working group
* Added a number of common POSIX reentrant functions for PEF
programming (asctime_r, ctime_r, localtime_r, gmtime_r, rand_r,
readdir_r, strerror_r, strtok_r)
* Uses a couple more Mach-O system functions for faster memcpy,
memmove, memset, memchr, and memcmp
* Mach-O Dynamic library for MSL C & MSL C++
* Fix for static destructors not working from bundles - even when
building with BSD C or using the gcc compiler
* Added ability to use move semantics (rvalue reference) for
drastic (revolutionary!) performance increases
* Added <bind> and mem_fn from the C++ TR1 addendum
* When using MSL C++ on top of BSD C (Mach-O), the standard MSL
C++ headers import items from the global namespace into the std
namespace
System Requirements
- Mac OS X v10.2.x or newer
- PowerPC G3 or greater (G4 recommended)
- 128 MB RAM
- 800 MB recommended for full installation

FWIW, I have got the CW 9 x86 compiler stuff working in CW 10 for those that are interested. Aside from just copying files from 9 to 10, there's some changes needed in MSL_Common/Include/extras_time.h. - remove all occurances of __std( ) leave whats between the parenthesis of course. - just under _MSL_BEGIN_EXTERN_C add: #if _MSL_TIME_T_AVAILABLE #ifndef _MSL_TIME_T_DEFINED typedef long time_t; #define _MSL_TIME_T_DEFINED #endif #endif The few projects i tried appeared to compile/work fine after that.

Where did you get it? MW's website doesn't seem to be updated yet (couldn't find it under Downloads or Desktop tools, at least.) Is CW10 any more stable than CW9? I had a lot more trouble with 9 than 8, was hoping for things to improve.

http://www.metrowerks.com/MW/Develop/Desktop/mac10 I got the link from macnn.com, though you're right, its not easily visible from the MW site itself. The product links still point to v9 it looks like. Anyhow, I can't really tell a difference just yet. I mostly use CW for my Windows work at the moment. I was looking mainly to see if there were any major IDE improvements. The only stumbling block i've had with it at this point is that despite the Win32Debugger plugin being present, i can't add remote debugging targets for anything other than MetroNub. Not sure if its a trial vs. pro thing though. I'm just checking out the trial for the moment before i drop any cash.

It is on the store, we are updating the Mac web page but that may take
a bit.
The free one isn't appearing yet but will soon.
If you have web caching on be sure to refresh the page.

If you have more problems with CW 9 than CW 8 you probably have
something set up incorrectly. There was a bug in framework access paths
in CW 8 that would cause problems in CW 9 when you updated a project it
could be something like that. (just guessing without knowing the exact
problem).

There is no shipping and handling fee. I did not know if our
fulfillment house had a charge or not when I wrote that.

if you did not get a serial number with your order (the early orders did
not have this) then send a copy of your invoice (email message) to
license@metrowerks.com
I'll have the activation page updated soon, to shed it of the typo.

CW 10 does not have any Windows tools, we sold that technology and have
removed it from the last release of CW 9. (There is no Java either)

i think the trick is to install it on the new machine and then once that
license.dat file is generated replace it with the one from your other
machine.
One other person I know of had the same problem.
If trashing it, doing an install, selecting register later, closing CW
and replacing the license.dat file does not solve this write directly to
me.

This is not tied to any machine so it should not require a second
license but even if Metrowerks goes away, Freescale will remain as will
the licensing department.
I hope that alleviates your concerns.

What we are thinking now it has to do with CW 9 being installed and the
OS finding the wrong license.dat file. Did you have CW 9 installed on
the second system you installed on? We looked at the license and they
seem to be fine. We are working on it.

Although the name Metrowerks has gone in favor of CodeWarrior there
should be a license department at Freescale for many years to come.

That was a tongue in cheek wake a reason to have a party. Metrowerks
still lives and indeed this release is a Metrowerks brand.
But the future of CodeWarrior for Mac is not uncertain this is the last
version and will only be sold for a limited time. This is a version
designed just to be low cost and give everyone that has a project made
with CodeWarrior a chance to bring it up to the latest release and make
it as stable as possible.
While this isn't a gift to the developers community we do not expect to
make money on this release. We are trying to do what is right for our
customers that have been loyal for many years. If this hasn't been
expressed clearly I apologize.

It is finding some cache using a generic license fixes the problem.

Metrowerks is Freescale and it is a growing business there is no need to
worry about the licensing mechanism

the plan is to discontinue this in the spring of next year, at that time
we will stop sales totally. We will discontinue direct support before
that time. This should not be news to anyone.

I'll post a notice at least 3 months before we discontinue sales.

I don't really like the idea of being without a working compiler somewhere next year. PS: And you may look for my email to sales@metrowerks.com as I need a new activation code.

What would you expect them to do for a 10.1 release? 10.0.1 maybe, but don't expect 10.1. This is a dead end product. The only reason we have it at all as far as I can tell is that they had already done a lot of it when Apple announced the switch to Intel, so they decided to finish what they could and sell it cheap. They'll probably fix some bugs, but that's about it. Larry

That's not a 10.x release, that's a 10.0.x release. You asked about a 10.1 version, which would be more than bug fixes. What you care about notwithstanding, it would be useful if you asked what you really wanted to know, and what you wanted to know if there will be additional releases to fix bugs. I expect they will be willing to fix bugs for at least a few months, so more than ever if you see a bug you want fixed, report it ASAP and definitely don't wait for someone else to report it. Larry

Probably not, for several reasons.

Be sure to archive the license.dat file

Write to desktop, or license not sales. That address should have been
changed sales will get you a reply but not as quickly as desktop or
license.

Amorized over a year's time or so, the cost of a pre-10 CW update was < $1/day, which is insignificant to a professional wanting to use the most productive tool he can. I'm not advocating that people buy CW this late in the game, but the cost over the years has been well worth it to me to have something that is easier to use, compliles much faster, and has a superior STL for C++. A free tool I don't enjoy using is no bargain. The only real issue with paying for CW10 is that it appears to be completely unsupported. > Not only that, CW was always a piece of shit... I remember the old days... it > generated crap, not code.... I have no idea why you would post this, but it's only a bad reflection on you, not MW or CW. CW was the standard for Mac development for many years. Even Apple used until they came up with PB/Xcode. I still haven't heard anyone claiming that GCC generates better code. There are good reasons CW has met its demise, but the quality of the code it generated was not one of them. Larry
