A Cocoa framework for communicating with Last.fm and scrobbling new tracks.

Primary LanguageObjective-C

Scribbler

Scribbler is a Cocoa framework for Last.fm by {13bold}. Drawing on inspiration from (the failure of) the LFScrobbler framework, Scribbler aims to solve many of the connectivity and stability issues exhibited by the old framework, while adding new features, like the ability to Love and Ban tracks.

Scribbler IS NOT backwards-compatible with LFScrobbler.

A Note on Garbage Collection

For the sake of compatibility, Scribbler supports living inside an application with Garbage Collection enabled. However, it is designed most stringently using reference counting. I don't anticipate there being any problems with Scribbler in a Garbage Collected-environment; however, I have not been able to provide ample testing. If any GC-related issues should come up, please submit a bug report.
