Now I just feel dippy&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Might there be anyone out there with experience developing for Java within Xcode who has a few minutes to spare helping me figure out how to translate <a href=\"https:\/\/frontpage.northseattle.edu\/offenback\/CSC-142-Java-Resources\/WorkingAtHome.htm\" title=\"NSCC: CSC142: Working at Home using JAVA\">this page<\/a> into something useable on my computer? I&#8217;ve gotten as far as getting Xcode installed, but&#8230;well, after that, I&#8217;m kind of stuck, as I have <em>no<\/em> idea what the majority of what I&#8217;m looking at is, and all the documentation\/help files seem to be written for people who have at least some background in programming.<\/p>\n<p>I have figured out that in Xcode, choosing <strong>File > New Project&#8230;<\/strong> and picking <strong>Java Tool<\/strong> seems to be equivalent to creating a New Project within BlueJ (as outlined on <a href=\"https:\/\/frontpage.northseattle.edu\/offenback\/CSC142-Sp07\/Assignments\/assignment01.htm\" title=\"NSCC: CSC142: Assignment 1\">the first homework assignment<\/a>). However, I don&#8217;t know how to set up the class&#8217;s two required libraries as a permanent part of the Xcode enviroment (as detailed in Step 3 of the <a href=\"https:\/\/frontpage.northseattle.edu\/offenback\/CSC-142-Java-Resources\/WorkingAtHome.htm\" title=\"NSCC: CSC142: Working at Home using JAVA\">Working at Home<\/a> page), so things aren&#8217;t exactly compiling. Essentially, while I know that I <em>should<\/em> be able to use Xcode to do everything that BlueJ will do, I don&#8217;t really know how concepts or methods map between the two environments &#8212; or if it&#8217;s even worth attempting. Since the whole class is going to be taught as if we&#8217;re using BlueJ, perhaps I&#8217;d be better off just sucking it up and installing BlueJ under Virtual PC (ick)?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, if anyone&#8217;s able and willing to toss a few words of advice my way, I&#8217;d greatly appreciate it. If I can&#8217;t figure out how to use Xcode within the next couple days (the <a href=\"https:\/\/frontpage.northseattle.edu\/offenback\/CSC142-Sp07\/Assignments\/assignment01.htm\" title=\"NSCC: CSC142: Assignment 1\">first homework assignment<\/a>, which proves we&#8217;re at least up and running, is due Friday), it&#8217;s going to be BlueJ under Virtual PC and\/or using the computers at school for all my CSC142 homework&#8230;and that just seems like <em>such<\/em> a waste when I&#8217;ve got this shiny and <em>perfectly capable<\/em> computer right here at home!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Might there be anyone out there with Java development under Xcode experience who has a few minutes to spare helping me figure out how to translate this page into something useable on my computer?
