Mac OS X port, Carbon and 64bits Technology (before WWDC07 part 2)

Because Apple itself seems to confuse a lot of people, better start with official links instead of feed the Troll :)

1) Seen on Leopard Overview

"First implemented at the UNIX level in Tiger, Leopard brings complete 64-bit support to all of Mac OS X's (tm) application frameworks. Using either the Carbon or Cocoa frameworks, you can create applications that can address extremely large data sets, up to 128TB using the current Intel-based CPUs. The 64-bit model used in Mac OS X is known as LP64 and is the same model used by other 64-bit UNIX systems from Sun and SGI as well as 64-bit Linux."


2) Apple page about 64 bits Technology ( Marketing )

3) The "Best of" from Carbon-dev mailing list
( I'll contact Deric Horn, we met during WWDC with Philipp )

Best of Carbon-dev



Now we have enough informations to present part 2 (Technical part ) of WWDC 2007 report

To be continued ...
