Apple Releases Sherlock 3 SDK 24

stevenprentice writes "Ken Bereskin's Radio Weblog just announced, 'Big news on the Sherlock 3 front. We've released an SDK that allows you to build your own Sherlock channels. The user interface of your channel is built using Interface Builder and the logic of the channel can be written in JavaScript and/or XQuery. You need to have the Mac OS X Developer Tools installed along with the 10.2.2 update and the SDK adds a technical reference on building a channel, a Project Builder template, the Interface Builder palette and a sample channel to help give you a jump start.'" It took them long enough, but better late then never.

    "It took them long enough, but better late then never."

    Late? Sherlock 3 has been out for less than 3 months. I suppose the Sherlock team could have waited until Sherlock 3 and its SDK were both ready.

    Of course, then Jaguar would have just been released.

    I'll take later on some things if it means earlier on others. As cool as the SDK is, it's kinda useless without the actual app itself. However I've found Sherlock 3 to be quite useful without the SDK.

    The release of the SDK is great - and yeah I think better late than never! But the documentation could use some beefing up (well, err, as could the rest of the OS) - for people that want to do channels other than pure web searches, like LDAP lookups, the help just isn't there...

    Could someone with a clue (and some spare time) come up with versions of some of the channels that are missing for Canadians?

    Note to Apple: we have electricity now, and everything. Really.

Deprive a mirror of its silver and even the Czar won't see his face.
