I am completely new to both the world of XCode and VST. Every tutorial I find deals with VST2.4 or earlier, when I really want to rork with VST3. I also currently have XCode 3.2.1 which doesn't have the Carbon framework which all other tutorials require.
Any ideas or documentation I can refer to?
For the Carbon framework, when you install Xcode it gives you the option of also installing the 10.4 SDK which I think you may need. Note that Carbon is deprecated for 64-bit, but you can still build 32-bit targets with it.
