I made a library for using quartz technologies with runtime revolution. Some of these technologies include Core Image, Core Video, Core Audio, Core Animation, Pdf services and QuickTime. While the lib will mainly focus with Core Image and Core video that pipes strings to compositions to output the final processes. It a simple straight forward solution to adding quartz processes to revolution built apps.
The library has been fully tested to work right. While not all quartz technologies will work, some of the key ones do. Access to key OS technologies are key in modern day software solutions. While we can be limited by somethings. The final product is the same as any product quartz would produce using cocoa.
This topic will include many posts so we can explain how to get up to speed with in revolution. Inculding seting up and preping the compositions and basic rev interfaces.
You need OSX 10.4 or later. But I recommend 10.5 or later with xcode developer tools installed on your system , and mainly Quartz composer the one included with xcode 3.0. There reasons why this is better than tigers tools and like I said , we focusing on commercial applications , this includes having and deploying to the latest operating systems.
