Thank you, this link is very helpful. The CGEventSourceKeyState
solution works perfectly.

This is how I do it in the application delegate's

UInt32 modifiers = GetCurrentKeyModifiers();

Thank you for the suggestion. In fact I'm entirely rewriting my Carbon
app from scratch using Cocoa: GetCurrentKeyModifiers() is what I was
doing previously. I was looking for a Cocoa solution.
Thanks to everybody,

Caching Streaming video
I am trying to playback video in my iOS app while I am loading and caching it at the same time. I fetch the video using a NSURLConnection and then store it in a local file, I start video playback of the local video file after a certain number of bytes are received. I have it working great in the simulator, I can start playing the video before I have received all of it, but when I go to run my app on my iPodTouch, I can only seem to play up to the number of bytes I had already received before I started playback. I can only play the entire video if I wait until I have receive the entire file before I start playback. I can also get the video to play completely if I stop the failed attempt with a [video stop] message and then start playing it again, pausing the video only doesn't work. Has anybody got this working, is it possible.

You don't get to this point, so it's not the problem you have now, but I assume
your real code invokes [super initWithFrame:...]?
This is in the implementation of the class that controls the window the

- (void)awakeFromNib {
[browser setMatrixClass:[SpecialMatrix class]];
[browser loadColumnZero];
NSMatrix *matrix = [storyLine matrixInColumn:0]; // - return nil
matrix = [storyLine matrixInColumn:1]; // - returns nil
}
First step: Break in -awakeFromNib and verify that browser is not nil.
Second step: Maybe an NSBrowser doesn't instantiate any matrices until you have
responded to browser:numberOfRowsInColumn: with a non-zero value?

Re-using the same NIB on two owners
Hello, I have an application that has two windows. Each window is associated to a controller class. On one method of each class I load another NIB that has a subordinate window. That subordinate NIB has outlets and actions that should be associated to the loading class, so on the NIB I set the File's Owner to be of the class that loads it. My problem is that I need to load the same NIB from two different classes, so the owner is different according to which class I load it from. Is there another way to do it without the file's owner ?

One way would be to declare a common superclass, of which both owner classes are subclasses, that implements the outlets actions that are connected in the .xib. Each subclass can then override the actions as needed. In IB (or Xcode 4, as the case may be), just define the file's owner in the .xib as the parent class. sherm-- -- Cocoa programming in Perl: http://camelbones.sourceforge.net ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: NSURLConnection
The asynchronous option allows you to report progress and utilize your data
immediately and do with it whatever you wish while the synchronous option
requires you wait until the entire data has been retrieved, possibly an issue
if you have data of any size. Also, for UI responsiveness, the synchronous
option really only makes sense on a secondary thread while the asynchronous
option can be fully performed on the main thread.

Problem with setNeedsLayout and layoutSubviews in UIScrollView
Hi.
I have a few custom views of three kind inside a custom UIScrollview. I'm
trying to resize these custom views as the device change the orientation.
I added these custom views programatically to the custom UIScrollView. I
implemented in the custom UIScrollview the below method
- (void)layoutSubviews {
UIDeviceOrientation currentOrientation = [[UIDevice currentDevice]
orientation];
if (UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape(currentOrientation)) {
for (id view in [self subviews]) {
if ([view isKindOfClass:[ECIndexComponent class]] ||
[view isKindOfClass:[ECListComponent class]] ||
[view isKindOfClass:[ECGraphView class]]) {
CGRect newFrame = [(UIView *)view frame];
newFrame.size.width *= 1.5;
newFrame.size.height *= 1.5;
newFrame.origin.y *= 1.5;
[(UIView *)view setFrame:newFrame];
}
}
}
else {
for (id view in [self subviews]) {
if ([view isKindOfClass:[ECIndexComponent class]] ||
[view isKindOfClass:[ECListComponent class]] ||
[view isKindOfClass:[ECGraphView class]]) {
CGRect newFrame = [(UIView *)view frame];
newFrame.size.width *= 0.666;
newFrame.size.height *= 0.666;
newFrame.origin.y *= 0.666;
[(UIView *)view setFrame:newFrame];
}
}
}
}
And in my view controller shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation method I call
setNeedsLayout for the custom scroll view. It's almost there, but now, when I
try to scroll, these subviews get redimensioned, even if I did not changed the
orientation. It looks like the scrolling is calling layoutSubviews
Is there a way to correct this?
Thank you

Re: Problem with setNeedsLayout and layoutSubviews in UIScrollView
Yes, scroll views layout during scroll. But the reSl problem is likely in your
use of device orientation. Specifically unlike interface orientation, not being
landscape is not the same ad bring portrait, as device orientation has 3
additional orientations. If you want to match your interface orientation, us
the interfaceOrientation property on your view controller.
That said, why layout that way at all? Why not base your layout on the views
bounds instead?

Re: Problem with setNeedsLayout and layoutSubviews in UIScrollView
Well, I used the macro UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape, I'm assuming that this
is for both sides:
#define UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait(orientation) ((orientation) ==
UIDeviceOrientationPortrait || (orientation) ==
UIDeviceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown)
#define UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape(orientation) ((orientation) ==
UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeLeft || (orientation) ==
UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeRight)
So the else only occours when the device is in portrait (being normal or upside
down), right?
So, if scroll view layout during scroll, I cannot do this resizing in
layoutSubview, and should do this in shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation
method in my controller?

And what is the recommended way to store paths in this case?

How can I store a path and get it back in a way that takes into account the above? Best practice is to not store paths, but to store NSURL/CFURL bookmark data or, prior to 10.6, alias records. Whether or not those will work in the face of the volume path changes you note, I don't know, but they are probably your best bet. An alternative, just for network mounted volumes, would be to get the volume URL using FSCopyURLForVolume. (For local volumes, the URL is roughly equivalent to the file path and provides no additional information.) Also as an aside, is there a way to have network volumes mounted for all users at once instead of just one user at a time? I don't recall the specifics, but I believe so if the volume is mounted at boot rather than during a user session. You can use fstab or the automount/autofs system to achieve this.

Re: MFMailComposeViewController: referencing attached data in HTML body
You could base64 your image data and use a data url to refer to it within your HTML. Then, you wouldn't have to attach it. -Heath Borders heath.bord...@gmail.com Twitter: heathborders http://heath-tech.blogspot.com On Sun, Jun 26, 2011 at 6:14 PM, Pierre Fournier shir...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi,is there a way to reference the attached data within the HTML body?[mailController addAttachmentData:pngDataFooter mimeType:@image/png fileName:@footer.png];[mailController setMessageBody:@htmlbodyimg src=\footer.png\/body/html isHTML:TRUE];When running such code, I get a blue question mark instead of the image, while the image is correctly attached.I want to kind of compose an html email based of different images. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

You don't get to this point, so it's not the problem you have now, but I assume
your real code invokes [super initWithFrame:...]?
I hadn't put a call to [super ...] yet as I wanted to verify that my
initWithFrame: was being called. Once I get this problem worked out, I
will call [super ...].
This is in the implementation of the class that controls the window the
browser is in:
- (void)awakeFromNib {
[browser setMatrixClass:[SpecialMatrix class]];
[browser loadColumnZero];
NSMatrix *matrix = [storyLine matrixInColumn:0]; //- return nil
matrix = [storyLine matrixInColumn:1]; //- returns nil
}
First step: Break in -awakeFromNib and verify that browser is not nil.
I've tested this and it's not nil. browser is an outlet I created and
connected with IB. The NSBrowser works for adding items to all of the
columns and I check to make sure that SpecialMatrix is set to be the
matrix class in browser after the call to setMatrixClass:
Second step: Maybe an NSBrowser doesn't instantiate any matrices until you have
responded to browser:numberOfRowsInColumn: with a non-zero value?
— F
That's possible, but I've tested adding items to the columns and
SpecialMatrix's initWith...: doesn't get called.
I do want to point out that I'm implementing
browser:numberOfChildrenOfItem: not browser:numberOfRowsInColumn, does
that make a difference?
Thanks!
