OpenStep Compliance 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. Classes

This file documents the complance of all the classes in the GNUstep Base library. Note that the following is just a best guess as to the compliance of the classes. Each class was checked to make sure it implemented all the documented OpenStep methods and functions. In addition, extensive testing has been performed on the GNUstep Base Library, and it is believed, to the best of our knowledge, that it operates according to the OpenStep specification, with the caveat that there are always bugs in any implementation and there are most likely bugs in the current implementation that we are not aware of.

The following classes conform to the OpenStep specification:

NSArchiver NSArray NSAssertionHandler NSAutoreleasePool NSBundle NSCalendarDate NSCharacterSet NSCoder NSConditionLock NSConnection NSCountedSet NSData NSDate NSDeserializer NSDictionary NSDistantObject NSEnumerator NSException NSInvocation NSLock NSMethodSignature NSMutableArray NSMutableCharacterSet NSMutableData NSMutableDictionary NSMutableSet NSMutableString NSNotification NSNotificationCenter NSNotificationQueue NSNumber NSObject NSProcessInfo NSProxy NSRecursiveLock NSRunLoop NSScanner NSSerializer NSSet NSString NSThread NSTimer NSTimeZone NSTimeZoneDetail NSUnarchiver NSUserDefaults NSValue All Protocols All Functions

The following OpenStep classes are not implemented. The usefulness of these classes it marginal so it is likely that we will never implement these classes. However, we would be pleased to accept their contribution should anyone care to implement them and assign the copyright to the Free Software Foundation.
