 Size:  6K         Date:11/04/93
 Description:
 Configuring Inodes - This technical note documents methods for
tuning/creating a UNIX file system with lower overheads in terms of inode
allocation, which proves to be important in large size file systems by
reclaiming disk space. The newfs command makes a Berkeley 4.2 UNIX file
system (UFS) on the specified device file. The A/UX version of HD SC Setup
invokes newfs when creating a UFS. Each file on the system is represented
by an inode, which contains critical information about the file, including
ownership, permissions, size, etc. The newfs command allocates disk space
for inodes when the UFS is created. Find out more!

 Description:
 Correct Platform Choice - With the release of the Apple Workgroup Server 95
there has been confusion with respect to guiding customers towards
selecting the proper platform for their specific needs. In a number of
instances the database version of this product has been selected when what
the customer required was really the File/Print Server. ACIUS Inc. is
shipping their version of the 4th Dimension server. It will be important
to make sure that people who want to obtain this product combination
understand that the proper platform is the File/Print Server and not the
database server product.

 Description:
 Forcing Floppy Size - This document explains how to initialize a disk as
either single- or double- sided. It only applies to 800K drives, of
course. You can call the disk driver to initialize a disk and determine
programmatically whether it should be initialized as single- (MFS) or
double- (HFS) sided. All you have to do is call the .Sony driver directly
to do the formatting then the Disk Initialization Package to write the
directory information.

 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:DV - Devices:DV 10 - Monitor Depth.sit
 Size:  7K         Date:12/06/94
 Description:
 Monitor Depth - This Technical Note describes two new system calls that
allow an application to change the depth and flags for a given device and
also check whether a device supports a particular depth and flags setting.
Apple provides these calls to give developers a better way to help users
make changes when they consider it appropriate. Abusive use of these calls
is a sure way to guarantee that the Thought Police come after you to
confiscate your Macintoshes, your stock of Mountain Dew, and your
Technical Notes binder. This Note assumes familiarity with Inside
Macintosh, Volume V, Graphics Devices.

 Name  =  DV 11 - Opening Serial Dri.sit
 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:DV - Devices:DV 11 - Opening Serial Dri.sit

 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:DV - Devices:DV 13 - PBClose the Barn D.sit
 Size:  5K         Date:12/06/94
 Description:
 PBClose the Barn Door - This Technical Note discusses the need for
Macintosh device drivers to implement _PBClose. You may get the idea when
implementing device drivers that _PBClose is superfluous. After all, if
you have a resident driver for a NuBus video board, the only time your
driver is not needed is if the operating system is going away. It might
seem that nothing important can happen after the operating system goes
away, so why bother with _PBClose? Well, it turns out a lot can happen,
and this Note tells you why it is important to implement a Close
(_PBClose) routine.

 Name  =  DV 14 - SCSI Bugs.sit
 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:DV - Devices:DV 14 - SCSI Bugs.sit

 Description:
 Serial GPi The Reliable Way - This Technical Note discusses the latest
supported methods for reading, validating, and configuring the GPi serial
input across all members of the Macintosh family. GPi is a software
configurable serial input present on some machines. It is located at pin 7
on the DIN-8 serial connectors, and connects to the DCD input of the Z8530
Serial Communications Controller (SCC). Because DCD is monopolized by the
mouse on the Macintosh Plus, GPi is not implemented on that machine. Other
machines which do not support GPi include the Macintosh Classic and Mac
LC. On these machines, pins 7 of the DIN-8 serial connectors are not
connected.

 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:FL - Files:FL 22 - HFS Ruminations.sit
 Size: 10K         Date:12/07/94
 Description:
 Normally an application doesnt need to open working directories (henceforth
WDs) using PBOpenWD, since SFGetFile returns a WDRefnum if the selected
file is in a directory on a hierarchical volume and you are running HFS.
There are times, however, when opening a WD is desirable (see the
discussion about BootDrive).

 Name  =  FL 23 - ioNamePtr.sit
 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:FL - Files:FL 23 - ioNamePtr.sit
 Size:  4K         Date:12/07/94
 Description:
 ioNamePtr - It is very important to set ioNamePtr when making PB calls,
even if you dont want those calls to return a name. Whenever Inside
Macintosh indicates that ioNamePtr is either required for input or returns
something, you must set ioNamePtr to either nil (if you arent using a
name) or to point to storage for a Str255. If you dont explicitly set
ioNamePtr, strange and unusual crashes may occur, depending on the
machine/configuration your code is run on.

 Name  =  FL 24 - ioPosOffset.sit
 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:FL - Files:FL 24 - ioPosOffset.sit
 Size:  4K         Date:12/07/94
 Description:
 ioPosOffset - The Device Manager chapter of Inside Macintosh Volume II says
that ioPosOffset is passed to and returned by Read and Write calls. It also
says that After the read [or write] is completed, the position is returned
in ioPosOffset Actually, ioPosOffset is not changed by either call. Also
note that device drivers should only look at the dCtlPosition field of the
DCE, and should not look directly at the ioPosOffset field of the parameter
block. The Device Manager sets up dCtlPosition for the driver, taking into
account both the ioPosMode and the ioPosOffset.

really work.

 Name  =  FL 27 - Mixing HFS and C I.sit
 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:FL - Files:FL 27 - Mixing HFS and C I.sit
 Size:  6K         Date:12/07/94
 Description:
 Mixing HFS and C I/O - This Technical Note discusses the problem of mixing
calls to the Macintosh file system with calls to MPW C library file I/O
routines. Problems with Communication Between HFS and C. Frequently,
developers want to use both Macintosh file I/O and C file I/O. Developers
who do this must keep in mind that they are combining two distinct file
representations (the Macintosh and ANSI C). The only limitation on mixing

 Description:
 Problem with GetVInfo - The high-level call GetVInfo (and its low-level
counterpart PBGetVInfo) may return inaccurate results for freeBytes when
running HFS. The high-level File Manager call GetVInfo returns the number
of free bytes on a volume as one of its parameters. Since GetVInfo is
really only glue that fills in a parameter block for you and then calls
PBGetVInfo, the values returned from it are subject to the limitations
(imposed for MFS) discussed in the File Manager chapter of Inside
Macintosh Volume IV.

determine which file system a particular volume is running. Changes since
June 1990. Removed text about IDs $0001-$0016 being AppleShare volumes;
other file systems use this range too. Under certain circumstances it is
necessary to determine which file system is currently running on a
particular volume. For example, on a 64K ROM machine, your application
(i.e., especially disk recovery utilities or disk editors, etc.) may need
to check for MFS versus HFS. Note that this is usually not necessary,
because all ROMs, except the original 64K ROMs, include HFS.

 Path =  AMUG 15.2:Files II:MacTNs:ME - Memory:ME 02 - Handles vs. Pointe.sit
 Size:  4K         Date:12/07/94
 Description:
 Handles vs. Pointers - A handle is a handle and a pointer is a pointer.
Applications should avoid embedding non-relocatable objects (that the
system assumes will never move) in handles. In order to avoid
fragmentation, some applications embed pointers (non-relocatable memory
manager objects) in handles, so that the handles can be moved around as
needed. This can cause several problems, especially with the Macintosh II,
and should be avoided.

 Device Independen Printing - The Printing Manager was designed to give
Macintosh applications a device- independent method of printing, but we
have provided device-dependent information, such as the contents of the
print record. Due to the large number of printer-type drivers becoming
available (even for non-printer devices) device independence is more
necessary than ever. What this means to you, as a developer, is that we
will no longer be providing (or supporting) information regarding the

 Description:
 Low-Level Printing - When you use the low-level printer driver to print,
you dont get the benefits of the error checking that is done when you use
the high-level Printing Manager. So, if the user prints to an AppleTalk
ImageWriter (including an AppleTalk ImageWriter LQ) that is busy printing
another job, the driver doesnt know whether the printer is busy, offline,
or disconnected. Because of this, PrError will return (and PrintErr will
contain) abortErr.

October 1990 - Added code in both versions to handle printing documents
larger than 128 pages. Introduction - At one time, Apple recommended that
developers call _PrOpen at the beginning of their application and _PrClose
at the end, before returning to the Finder. This recommendation was in the
ancient past when an application only had to deal with a single printer
driver. As more printer drivers became available, it became important for
an application to consider the presence of other applications.

Comment. The SetLineWidth picture comment provides a way of accessing
PostScripts 'setlinewidth' operator. Since the LaserWriter resolution is
roughly four times that of the Macintosh screen, fractional line widths
can be printed. The SetLineWidth PicComment provides a way for
applications to access these fractional line widths through PostScript,
without having to use floating point numbers.

 Spooler Queries? - When the LaserShare spooler is on an AppleTalk network,
it acts like a LaserWriter-type device, which can be chosen and
communicated with much like a real LaserWriter. Some applications,
however, must communicate with a LaserWriter directly, not a spooler. If
this is true for your application, you can check whether you are actually

Pascal, Object Pascal cannot be used to write anything other than an
application. This limitation is due to the fact that Object Pascal method
dispatching relies on a valid A5 pointing to a jump table. Because MacApp
is written in Object Pascal, this limitation applies to it as well.
