Xcode Duplicate line

So I have started working in xcode, and the first thing I was missing was some key bindings for duplicating a line up or down like eclipse does.
I took a while to figure out how to do it. So here’s an explanation. (I’m using xcode 3.2)
Make a duplicate of the xcode keybindings set in the xcode preferences: (i named mine patrick

Close xcode

You should be able to find the file xode created in
/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Xcode/Key Bindings
for me it is called Patrick.pbxkeys

Edit this file with the property editor.
From the view menu select :
Show Strings as Non-lossy ASCII

Add 2 children as follows

Save, and open up xcode

ctrl+shift+uparrow should now duplicate the current line upwards
ctrl+shift+downarrow should now duplicate the current line downwards

happy coding

Upgrading to Snow Leopard a.k.a 10.6

So I’m upgrading my MBP to 10.6.
Since this is my production machine I’m taking no chances.
I bought an external 7200rpm 2,5” HD and installed 10.6 onto this drive.
Once this installation is as stable as I would like it to be, I’ll be swapping the internal HD for this one (leaving me with a backup OS in case of emergencies).

So far all my apps seem to be running just fine.

I’ll be keeping a list here for all minor/major tweaks that were necessary to get everything running.

Enabling PHP and MYSQL

First of all edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and uncomment the following line
loadModule php5_module      libexec/apache2/libphp5.so

Next install Mysql, get the latest version (now still says osx 10.5, but it will run!)
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html#macosx-dmg

copy php.ini.default to php.ini  (don’t forget to make it writable first)

edit default_socket properties: I’m using pdo so I had to change the following line
pdo_mysql.default_socket=/var/mysql/mysql.sock
to
pdo_mysql.default_socket=/tmp/mysql.sock

edit the default timezone, i.e:
date.timezone = Europe/Amsterdam

edit some properties like upload size memory limit

start mysql , add at least one user since by default there’s only root without a password
(use sequel pro, It’s a nice opensource and free DB-tool)

now restart apache
sudo apachectl graceful

… you can now develop local php-sites

…..
more to come…..
