Programming with AppleTalk by Michael Peirce, Addison-Wesley, 1991, ISBN 0-201-57780-1, Library of Congress 91-4321, in the Macintosh Inside Out series. The scan is 278 pages.
This is not an Apple publication. It is a third-party book, and it is a secondary source: where it disagrees with Apple's own service documentation, the Apple document wins.
This page is a duplicate. The same book is also held at Programming With AppleTalk 1991 under Category:Apple Programming Documentation, from a different scan (the two files differ in size but are the same edition, same ISBN and same page count). This copy is the smaller scan.
What it covers
Writing Macintosh programs that use AppleTalk, in MPW Pascal 3.1 (the examples also build under THINK Pascal). It concentrates on the protocols an application actually uses — finding network entities and moving data — rather than the full protocol stack.
What it does not contain
- This is not a repair source. No specifications, no procedures, no part numbers, no component
data, no cable pinouts and no electrical figures.
- For the physical AppleTalk network — bus termination, noisy nodes, impedance, dangling
cables, circular networks and the 300-metre cable limit — use Apple's own Service Support Tranning Programs Laserwriter Technical Procedures Jan 1985 (the Macintosh Office section) or Troubleshooting Your Macintosh 1992 chapter 11.
Pages that cite this document
- Programming With AppleTalk 1991 — the other copy of the same book
- Apple Desktop Bus — for the distinction between ADB and AppleTalk
