Note that the following is just a best guess 15 as to the compliance of the classes. Each class was checked to make 16 sure it implemented all the documented OpenStep methods and functions. 17 In addition, extensive testing has been performed on the GNUstep Gui 18 Library, and it is believed, to the best of our knowledge, that it 19 operates according to the OpenStep specification, with the caveat that 20 there are always bugs in any implementation and there are most likely 21 bugs in the current implementation that we are not aware of. 22 </p> 23 <p> 24 The following classes conform to the OpenStep specification: 25 </p> 26 <list> 27 <item>NSActionCell</item> 28 <item>NSBox</item> 29 <item>NSBrowser</item> 30 <item>NSBrowserCell</item> 31 <item>NSBundleAdditions</item> 32 <item>NSButton</item> 33 <item>NSButtonCell</item> 34 <item>NSCachedImageRep</item> 35 <item>NSClipView</item> 36 <item>NSColor</item> 37 <item>NSColorList</item> 38 <item>NSColorPanel</item> 39 <item>NSColorPicker</item> 40 <item>NSColorWell</item> 41 <item>NSControl</item> 42 <item>NSCursor</item> 43 <item>NSCustomImageRep</item> 44 <item>NSEvent</item> 45 <item>NSFont</item> 46 <item>NSFontManager</item> 47 <item>NSFontPanel</item> 48 <item>NSForm</item> 49 <item>NSFormCell</item> 50 <item>NSImage</item> 51 <item>NSImageRep</item> 52 <item>NSMenu</item> 53 <item>NSOpenPanel</item> 54 <item>NSPanel</item> 55 <item>NSPasteboard</item> 56 <item>NSPopUpButton</item> 57 <item>NSPrintInfo</item> 58 <item>NSPrintOperation</item> 59 <item>NSResponder</item> 60 <item>NSScreen</item> 61 <item>NSScroller</item> 62 <item>NSSelection</item> 63 <item>NSSlider</item> 64 <item>NSSliderCell</item> 65 <item>NSSpellChecker</item> 66 <item>NSSpellServer</item> 67 <item>NSSplitView</item> 68 <item>NSText</item> 69 <item>NSTextField</item> 70 <item>NSTextFieldCell</item> 71 <item>NSView</item> 72 <item>All Protocols</item> 73 </list> 74 <p> 75 The following classes are only partially implemented 76 </p> 77 <deflist> 78 <term>NSApplication</term> 79 <desc>-preventWindowOrdering not implemented. 80 In -activateIgnoringOtherApps:, the flag is ignored.</desc> 81 <term>NSBitmapImageRep</term> 82 <desc>+TIFFRepresentationOfImageRepsInArray:usingCompression:factor: 83 not fully implemented.</desc> 84 <term>NSCell</term> 85 <desc>-setFloatingPointFormat:left:right: not implemented. 86 -setEntryType: not complete.</desc> 87 <term>NSDataLinkManager</term> 88 <desc>Missing noteDocumentSaved... methods.</desc> 89 <term>NSDataLinkPanel</term> 90 <desc>-setAccessoryView: not implemented.</desc> 91 <term>NSEPSImageRep</term> 92 <desc>Cannot interpret/draw EPS images</desc> 93 <term>NSMatrix</term> 94 <desc>-setValidateSize: not implemented</desc> 95 <term>NSPageLayout</term> 96 <desc>-setAccessoryView: not implemented.
