Re: Discovering host to use in rootProxyForConnectionWithRegisteredName:host:

The domain name hostName is an Internet domain name (for example, sales.anycorp.com). If hostName is nil or empty, then only the local host is searched for the named NSConnection object. But it doesn't offer any info for the presumably common case where you know the registered name and know it is on the local domain, but is not localhost. I looked into NSNetServiceBrowser's searchForServicesOfType: inDomain: to find the known service name but that requires that you know the service type. NSConnection, of course makes no mention of what type it registers distributed objects, so it seems, at least from available documentation, that you are forced to hard code in domains. I'm sure this must be just a documentation bug, so how does one discover the local domain?

Anyway, that's useful info, at least it explains what I'm seeing. I
worked around it in a different way in the end - I added a user-

That worked fine - this is similar to Phillipe's suggestion.
I know you found a way to do this that works for you, but I just
wanted to point out that you can also just put it into the
InfoPlist.strings file(s) and it'll work just fine (and, in the case
of Sparkle, allows you to have different URLs for different
localizations if you want to do that).
Just so I'm clear here, I mean putting the key into the
InfoPlist.strings file(s) rather than into the Info.plist file. This
will work for almost any key you want to use, as long as you (or the
underlying API) is using -objectForInfoDictionaryKey to look up the
keys.

Custom NSDictionaryController object class
I'm having a problem with NSDictionaryController. I created a class named EPCustomClass that I want to use as the object class that NSDictionaryController uses when returning objects from methods such as -newObject or -arrangedObjects. So on wake from nib, I've sent - setObjectClass:[EPCustomClass class] to my NSDictionaryController (that's instantiated in a nib) to tell it to use the new objects. But my custom methods don't seem to be used. These objects conform to the NSDictionaryControllerKeyValuePair protocol, but if I put an NSLog line inside my -setValue: method, the log line doesn't get printed at all even when I call -setValue: on one of these objects. Furthermore, objects returned by my NSDictionaryControllers methods don't seem to respond to custom methods that I've implemented in EPCustomClass; it just says that an unrecognized selector was sent to that object. What's going on here? When I call -objectClass on my NSDictionaryController, it's correctly returning EPCustomClass, but it doesn't seem to be using any of the modifications I've used to the class!? This can't possibly be normal behavior. What am I doing wrong? -- Simone ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Printing a range of text in a particular container --
If I have a particular range of glyphs that I want to put in, say,textContainer1, and a different (as it happens, contiguous) range I want to put in textContainer2, is there a way to do it? I've tried [layoutManager drawGlyphsForGlyphRange: glyphRangeStringOne atPoint:startPoint]; [layoutManager drawGlyphsForGlyphRange:glyphRangeStringTwo atPoint:startPoint2]; Here the first range of glyphs takes up almost all of the first container. The second range of glyphs seems to start in the position of (relative to the top left corner (isFlipped) of the second container) that it would have occupied in the first container if it had been drawn there, then continues from the top of the second container. What I would like, is to end drawing in textContainer1 after the first 'drawGlyphs..', and have the second 'drawGlyphs...' start out in the textContainer2. I can't see a way to do this using only one NSTextStorage instance From what I can tell, it would seem to require two NSTextStorage instances with corresponding layout managers and textContainers. It seems I'm missing something. I need a method that works with 10.4, by the way.

Re: Crash when sorting tree bound to NSOutlineView
On Dec 27, 2008, at 11:19 AM, Markus Spoettl wrote: The crash goes away. However, I have a feeling that this may be pure coincidence. Even more so as the crash also goes way if the node inserted is not on that particular location in the tree or if another node gets inserted somewhere else first. All very strange. This of course turned out to be a fluke and the crash reappeared promptly with a slightly different tree configuration. Turns out - not very surprisingly - that I'm doing something that the outline doesn't like: The outline view is bound via a NSTreeController and I'm observing the controller's -arrangedObjects property. When a KVO notification is delivered, I go through the outline and expand certain nodes. This all works well except for when the tree gets sorted. This causes an KVO notification but apparently the outline doesn't like to get its tree nodes expanded at this stage. I've done some digging with NSZombieEnabled and CFZombieLevel and it appears that NSOutlineView releases an internal treenode due to the sorting which is still accessible (but garbage) via -itemAtRow: When this happens I get this console entry 12/28/08 1:38:37 PM myApp[8993] *** -[NSTreeControllerTreeNode retain]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x166e0920 In the course of debugging this I also got assertions in AppKit: 12/28/08 12:41:54 PM myApp[8615] *** Assertion failure in - [_NSBindingAdaptor outlineColumn:willDisplayCell:row:], /SourceCache/ AppKit/AppKit-949.43/Binding.subproj/_NSBindingAdaptor.m:759 I guess I can understand that things get complicated when you mess with the expanded items during a sort which changes the nodes arrangements. Fair enough. The question is how can I ensure a certain node stays expanded when its root nodes array gets sorted programatically. Apparently NSOutlineView throws away all the nodes that are being sorted and creates new ones which makes it loose the expanded state. Hints appreciated!

A Mac App helper NSStatusItem - how to share preferences
Folks; I have an application which will have an optional helper NSStatusItem. The statusItem is a stand-alone application which can be installed as a LoginItem. I want this status item to be able to read the preferences file from the application. The user sets a number of preferences in the normal app which influence both how the app and the status item should behave. I'm under the clear impression that I should not use the same bundleIdentifer for the application and the statusItem. They could both be running at the same time... Yet the bundleIdentifier seems to be the key to the file that [NSUserDefaults sharedDefaults] opens.. This not a managed environment nor is this issue related to users or hosts, so it doesn't seem that CFPreferences is called for (or even helps!) How can I get the statusItem to read the application's preferences? Thanks!

If you think that there's something wrong with this particular case,

IKImageBrowserView and the View Hierarchy
I have had a number of troubles with IKImageBrowserView not respecting other views trying to draw over the top of it. I have worked around some of the issues, but this latest I can't seem to resolve. I am trying to dim several of the views in my window by simply placing a translucent view over the top of them. This works as expected, *except* for the IKImageBrowserView... it always shines through and appears to be the top-most view. I did find that if I force the translucent view to be layer backed by - setWantLayer:YES, then the *background* of the IKImageBrowserView becomes appropriately dimmed, but the loaded images just disappear! This is *almost* repeatable with zero lines of code just using Interface Builder. You can drag an instance of IKImageBrowserView on a new window, then try to overlay another view, like an ImageWell or something. You'll see that the ImageWell is always below the IKImageBrowserView unless you tell it to be layer backed (although the layer-backing trick doesn't work in the simulator). What's going on here? IKImageBrowserView is clearly doing something fancy -- any ideas what that is and how I can get it to behave like a normal NSView?

Re: Printing a range of text in a particular container --
Hi John, If I have a particular range of glyphs that I want to put in, say,textContainer1, and a different (as it happens, contiguous) range I want to put in textContainer2, is there a way to do it? I've tried [layoutManager drawGlyphsForGlyphRange: glyphRangeStringOne atPoint:startPoint]; In general you don't really tell the text layout system what glyphs you want in which container. You'll note the documentation for the drawing method states: Draws the glyphs in the given glyph range, which must lie completely within a single text container. Under normal operation you simply give NSLayoutManager the full text and a series of connected containers/views and it figure the rest out for you. If you really must have one chunk of text displayed in one area and a second chunk in another you have these options: 1. Use a separate NSTextStorage and NSLayoutManager pair for each text chunk. 2. Separate the chunks of text in your NSTextStorage by a break character (NSFormFeedCharacter). There's also an unsavory third option where you size your NSTextContainers so the text happens to break into the second container at exactly the right point. I really wouldn't recommend this approach. One other thought: if you're really not using NSTextView and are doing all the drawing manually via NSLayoutManager, you might also be able to use a single infinitely tall NSTextContainer. That way NSLayoutManager will always be able to draw the glyph range you request. Just make sure your chunks of text are separated by a newline character so the second block's horizontal offset is flush with the rest of the text. ~Martin ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
