Using XCode isn't really the best way to create PyObjC apps. The recommended way is to use InterfaceBuilder to create your UI, implement it with PyObjC, and use py2app to build the application from there.
Check out the tutorial on the PyObjC site, and the docs for py2app. PyObjC tutorial: http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/doc/tutorial.php Py2app documentation: http://undefined.org/python/py2app.html It sounds like you already have the nib and code, so that should work for you. If you have the nib, but no code yet, there is a script which will generate a python files with stubs built from your nib to get you started. Using the nibclassbuilder script is demonstrated in the tutorial. I hope that helps to get you started. Come back with any further questions you have. --Dethe On 3/6/06, Scott Frankel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Following the simple example app that Apple provides for PyObjC has > lead me to a number of questions ... and a failed build.
