Going through some Obj-C codes given by someone else I've added the '''works with''' template, since all the examples always use a OpenStep (likely Cocoa, but works almost always on GNUstep too) framework. When I've found already a "works with Objective version 2.0+" notice, a dilemma came into my mind: which is the exact difference (in this case) between Works With and Libheader?! From a point of view, GNUstep (and Cocoa) is (are) a (set of) library(ies), built "upon" Obj-C OO mechanisms / runtime. So it seems Libheader can apply (in fact we must specify #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h> or #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> and so on... and when compiling, we need linking properly with that framework. But Works With too... being this maybe more generic? Or should ''Works with'' be kept for language versions, operating systems, or implementations, and Libheader for libraries? (And in this case, I should go back changing WorksWith with Libheader in all GNUstep/Cocoa cases?)... |
