I hope someone can put me straight. I created a vanilla Cocoa App. I deleted 
the window from the MainMenu.xib and created a MainWindow.xib with essentially 
an identical window (no views).

I created a MainWindowController with one overriding method, init, see below. 
In the app delegate's applicationDidFinishLaunching method I create the main 
window controller and attempt to show the main window. If I breakpoint just 
after the [mainController showWindow: nil] method I can see the proper user 
interface with the main menu and main window. However, when I let the program 
run the window immediately disappears. As none of my code runs after that point 
I'm at a bit of a loss discovering what makes the window go away.

What am I doing (or not doing) that causes the main window to close or become 
invisible? The code is below.

Thanks,

Tom Wetmore

AppDelegate.h:
--------------
@interface AppDelegate : NSObject <NSApplicationDelegate>
@end

AppDelegate.m:
--------------
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "MainWindowController.h"

@implementation AppDelegate

- (void) applicationDidFinishLaunching: (NSNotification*) aNotification {
    MainWindowController* mainController = [[MainWindowController alloc] init];
    [mainController window]; // force controller to load nib.
    [mainController showWindow: nil];  // show window -- which promptly 
disappears
}

@end


MainWindowController.h:
-----------------------
@interface MainWindowController : NSWindowController
@end

MainWindowController.m:
-----------------------
#import "MainWindowController.h"

@implementation MainWindowController

- (id) init { return [super initWithWindowNibName: @"MainWindow"]; }

@end
