Notification Programming Topics for Cocoa states "A notification center delivers notifications to observers synchronously. In other words, when posting a notification, control does not return to the poster until all observers have received *and processed* the notification." [my emphasis]
I was wondering exactly what "and processed" included in the statement above. If I post a named notification to the appDelegate and that delegate, upon receipt, immediately calls func1() which calls func2() etc. where does this "processed" chain stop? What if this chain terminates with exactly the same notification that started it? Does this all build up a long, unterminated chain or does it end earlier somehow? Tests with NSLog() would seem to indicate that the latter occurs but it is not entirely clear from the documentation. Thanks -- and apologies for such a newbie query. -- Mike McLaughlin _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
