In PackageMaker, a test that compares the value of a system property (such as the amount of random-access memory available) with a value. Choice requirements determine the value of a choice’s user-interface properties: selected, actionable, and visible.
Industry:Software; Computer
A data structure that stores a block of data that specifies such things as vertex coordinates, texture coordinates, surface normals, RGBA colors, color indices, and edge flags.
Industry:Software; Computer
Attributes that specify how the lines of text associated with the text layout object are displayed and formatted. Line attributes control an individual line of text; layout attributes control all of the text associated with a text layout object.

Advanced Encryption Standard encryption. A Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS), described in FIPS publication 197. AES has been adopted by the US government for the protection of sensitive, nonclassified information. The algorithm was developed by Dr. Joan Daemen and Dr. Vincent Rijmen and was named the Rijndael algorithm. It is a symmetric-key algorithm that can use key sizes of 128, 192, or 256 bits. Apple has adopted the 128-bit version of AES for FileVault. There are approximately 3.4 x 10**38 possible 128-bit keys.
