Twitter - Follow 140 Tech Experts - The easy way!
Earlier today someone posted a Tweet to an article titled "140 tech experts to follow on Twitter, updated for 2010." Sounds like a good idea to me. I'm a geek, so these people should be tweeting about things I am interested in. I want to follow all 140 but I do not want to do that manually. That would take a long time.
Automation to the Rescue
In about five minutes, I whipped up this script that did it for me. The script ran in just a few seconds and I am now following all 140.
Create @property, @synthesize & dealloc from Variable Declaration [video]
Drastically Improved on 2010-03-07
UPDATE: 2010-03-07 Updated to write the @synthesize and dealloc declarations to the .m file as well as place the @property declaration just below the closing bracket in the .h file. I have been testing it all day and have had no issues with it. Please let me know if you have an suggestions or find a bug. UPDATE: 2010-03-10 Updated to work on Leopard.Leopard, concerning Apple Events, is a little flaky. If you encounter any issues, please report them.
UPDATE: 2010-03-12 Updated to choose between adding the @property declarations after the closing bracket "}" in the @implementation or just before the closing @end.
Set this preference to true for the bracket and false for @end.
@position_prop_after_closing_bracket = false
One of the things we do a lot of in Objective-C is outlet and variable declaration, synthesize and dealloc. Since this is a repeatable recurring event I thought I would add a little automation to the process.
This updated script has a few preferences. One is @thread_safe. If set to true, the "nonatomic" value will be used. If set to false, it will not. The others are for memory management. Add class names to the corresponding array for @copy, @assign and @retain for default assignments for those classes. This isn't a hugh amount of preferences but it does allow some flexibility.
The most significant improvement is that it now writes the @synthesize and dealloc declarations for you in the .m file. It also positions the @property declarations just below the closing bracket in the .h file. It does not create a dealloc declaration for anything that you list in the @assign array.
Requirements / Dependencies
The script is dependent on rb-appscript. The easiest way to install this is with Ruby gems.
