Julien et al,sleep() is just blocking the thread, so no event is processed. Use run loops instead.Try to replace sleep() with [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runMode:beforeDate:]You mean the NSURLConnection callbacks are not callbacks in the C / C ++ sense i.e. they're more like dispatched messages instead?
They are like C callbacks but they get called from the RunLoop. The connection gets add as a run loop source and when data is ready, the call-back will get invoked.
The other problem that you have with your current implementation is that your main thread will completely block too. If this is a console app, that's not really a problem, but if this is a GUI app, it will stop responding to events and give the user a beach-ball... they will probably think that something is wrong and may kill the application, so you should watch out for that.
