Product Description:

Accessorizer began as a Cocoa application and suite of Services to generate ObjC accessor declaration and implementation methods from variable declarations. But Accessorizer now offers more. Much, much more!


In addition to offering a broad range of memory management schemes, Accessorizer generates code for Keyed Archving, Key-Value Observation, Key-Value Validation, locking using NSLock or @synchronized() - for writing multi-threaded apps, Headerdoc tags and undo using NSUndoManager. "Accessorizer frees up time for fun and productive parts of development" (Troy Stepehens). Users report saving "tons of time". And of course, Accessorizer can help eliminate common mistakes and frequent typos that invariably slow and frustrate the coding process.



Services allow the developer to select ivar declarations in any application which supports OSX Services, such as XCode, TextEdit and others, and generate methods for
  • Declaration
  • Implementation
  • Declaration & Implementation
  • Dealloc
  • ivar Lock
  • Private Lock
  • Indexed Accessors
  • Keyed Archiving
  • Key-Value Validation

Changes made in the prefs drawer take effect immediately in the output view so that the developer can quickly determine the best solution for the given task. Accessorizer also provides extensive flexiblity in how the generated code is presented while maintaining good coding conventions.


Never have to leave XCode! Minimize Accessorizer to the Dock, invoke an Accessorizer service from the Services menu (or hotkey) and never leave XCode! That's because results from a service invocation are put on the pasteboard. Simply paste results where you wish! As a side feature, Accessorizer can take ivars declared in Objective-C and output accessors in Java with a simple toggle of a radio button or shortcut.

What's new in this version:

  • Version 099t introduced support for acronyms but broke prefixes! This version fixes that.
  • Per user request: Accessorizer now supports ivar declarations such as:
  •  id UIN; id GUIState; 
  • Fixed locking code in GETTER and added locking for non-pointer variables in setter
  • Added generation of NSLogs (with an option to // them out)
  • The default font for Accessorizer text views has been [NSFont userFixedPitchFontOfSize: 0.0], ᅡᅠᅡᅠᅡᅠnow there is a pref to change font in the Prefs drawer-> General tab
  • Fixed Java output
  • Reconnected controller wire to language matrix (prefs for Objc/Java are honored again :-)
  • Added a print menu to print results
  • Removed colon after getter signature in comment header when single header pref is OFF
  • Added /* ivar */ comment header

Accessorizer ReviewIndispensable - Version: 0.9.9u, 2/16/2006 08:11PM PST

Larry Gerndt
Easily the most important tool for writing Cocoa code other than XCode itself. The product is simple to use, and with the time you save, it'll pay for itself by in a single day.

Accessorizer ReviewSolidly one of the most useful dev apps ever - Version: 0.9.9u, 3/3/2005 08:33PM PST

Apolo Productions
It is amazingly small, blazingly fast and any cocoa developer will immediately see its usefulness. In a world where no two developers write code that looks the same way; it is amazing to see a program that can be all styles for all coders.

Kudos!

Accessorizer ReviewAmazing! - Version: 0.9.9s, 12/8/2004 11:55AM PST

Accessorizer is incredible, and Kevin responds to feature requests instantly. I requested init methods two days ago and received a beta of this version from Kevin by email the next day! I can't imagine programming in Cocoa without Accessorizer.
