Re: NSCache objects not being collected under GC?
On 19 Aug 2011, at 03:26, Nick Zitzmann wrote: Short version: Have any of you ever used NSCache in a GC-enabled app? If so, then how did you get the garbage collector to collect them? Long version: I have a framework that is used in a traditional retain-release app and a different GC-enabled app. The framework creates NSCache objects for storage of throw-away objects, and stores these NSCache objects in a CFDictionaryRef. At some point, the CFDictionaryRef is instructed to remove the entire cache when the app no longer needs that cache. That pops the NSCache and deallocates it in the retain-release app, but in the GC app, I ran an Instruments test and found that the NSCache objects and their contents were never being finalized. If I change the code so the code uses NSMutableDictionary instead of NSCache, then the dictionaries and their objects are properly finalized when popped. I want to use NSCache and not NSMutableDictionary, but I can't do this in the GC-enabled app if the collector is going to let the caches live forever. How do I make it so that the collector collects them? I already tried using Instruments to monitor the GC object graph, but the results made no sense. According to Instruments, the NSCache objects were rooted by a non-object memory address created before main() was called, a long time before the objects were made. Also, I noticed that objects in the cache would not identify the cache as their root. (Is that normal?) I don't use NSCache but I have used instruments to effectively debug GC memory collection problems. The described rooting behaviour of NSCache sounds peculiar to me. What happens if you call -removeAllObjects. Are the cached objects finalised correctly? I know this isn't the same as collecting the NSCache instance but at least, as a workaround if the issue persists, you can recycle the NSCache instances.

SKPaymentTransaction has no receiptData property for Mac In App Purchase
Hello List, I have a question about the Mac In App Purchase. After reading the In App Purchase Programming Guide and also other reference document via Google, I found this guide is mainly focus on the iOS platform, actually, no one can tell me what’s the difference of the StoreKit.framework on Mac and iOS. My question is about the verifying Store Receipts, the document says that I can retrieve the receipt data from the transaction’s transactionReceipt property, but seems the SKPaymentTransaction have no such property for the StoreKit.framework on Lion. Does anyone know how to retrieve the receipt data after finished the transaction? http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StoreKitGuide/VerifyingStoreReceipts/VerifyingStoreReceipts.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008267-CH104-SW1 After reading the document http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/General/ValidateAppStoreReceipt/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40010573 I found that the In App Purchase receipt data is inserted to the original receipt data file, which is generated after installed from App Store. That’s to say, there really has an In App Purchase receipt returned from app store, but I can not get it by following the guide In App Purchase Programming Guide . Thanks ahead if any one can point out my mistake. I am sure that there is no receipt data property, please take a look at the head file here: /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/StoreKit.framework/Versions/A/Headers/SKPaymentTransaction.h Thanks, XiaoGang. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

NSData Mime Types...
I've developed an application using EDMessage Frameworks which sends emails with attached PDF to a OSX fax server (running 4-Sight FAX v 7.x). The fax server converts the attached PDF into a 1-bit tiff and sends it to a fax number specified in the body of the email. This email w/attachment works very well with all sorts of email systems, however the fax server 4-Sight FAX v 7.x rejects the EDMessage email saying it's not formatted properly. After examining the raw headers of a successful email-fax to 4-Sight FAX vs. an unsuccessful email-fax which EDMessage created, I have the following question. I suspect my Content-Type needs to be specified as Content-Type: application/pdf rather than Content-Type: application/octet-stream; What methods/techniques are available in NSData to set Mime-Types and other such things?

Dug a hole with NSCGSImageRep...
Due to a bug in my code, we shipped an app that unintentionally archives an NSImage obtained from the Picture Taker. I can fix the bug alright, but I'm wondering if I can dig myself out of the hole we're in in some way so that users can rescue these archives. During dearchiving, I first get a logged warning: Warning - attempting to decode NSCGSImageRep Shortly followed by an out of range exception from NSKeyedDearchiver: exception while reading file: *** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 0 beyond bounds for empty array This exception prevents the document from being opened at all. Does anyone know if this image can be dearchived in any way? I can easily catch the exception and allow the document to open without the image, but ideally I'd like to find a way to keep the image if at all possible, if only for our customers' sake. --Graham ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: Specify valid values for a Core Data attribute
Hi Brian, I've normally solved this using an integer for the value and enumerate that to stand for different states of the bug. I'm not sure if there's a clever way to use an enum in conjunction with core data, so it may become a headache to 'remember' what each value stands for, but if you only have a few states, then it should be straightforward. Then you bind the selectedIndex of the popup button, say, rather than the selectedObject. Cheers, Martin On Aug 19, 2011, at 3:40 PM, Brian Norh wrote: Hello. When I'm using Core Data I'm sometimes in a situation where I have an attribute than can only have a specific set of possible values. As an example let's say that you make a bug tracker and you have an entity called Bug. Then it's possible that you want an attribute for the state that the bug is in. Let's say that possible states are Open, Closed and In Progress. What I've done so far is that I've had attributes like that defined as strings. Usually I've had a combo box or a radio group in the user interface and the possible input values have been defined by what the possible selections the combo box or radio group offers. One of the problems with this approach is that it doesn't work if the application is localized it into a different language. Then the word which indicates the state is stored differently depending on the current language. I need to save the selection in a language independent manner. How would you do that? I've tried to find an answer in the Core Data Programming Guide and I've also searched the list archives. I'm not really sure what the appropriate terminology for this specific kind of attribute would be so it could be that I'm just using the wrong search terms or I'm just not looking at the right place.

On Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 10:38 PM, Ken Thomases k...@codeweavers.com wrote: My thinking is that -replaceItemAtURL:... is a wrapper around exchangedata() or FSExchangeObjects(). Those functions, and the general operation that they perform, require that the files to be exchanged be on the same file system. It would seem that, on iOS, the application's Document folder is on a different file system from the temporary directory. This is exactly the problem which -URLForDirectory:NSItemReplacementDirectory... is intended to solve. It's to give you a temporary directory that's appropriate for a subsequent -replaceItemAtURL:... call. If true, that certainly makes that method far less useful in the general case than I expected, and really seems restricted to the saving a new copy of an in-memory document and swapping it case. I really don't want to put the in-process download into the Documents tree. (Both because it's potentially visible to the user through iTunes, and because NSTemporaryDirectory() will be swept up occasionally.) I'll see what I can do to test this this morning. I guess the question then becomes: - Abandon the use of the atomic swap altogether, and roll my own copy+remove? - Or introduce an extra step, where I copy the temp file into NSItemReplacementDirectory, and then call replaceItemAtURL? - Or is there some better pattern altogether? I recommend that you file bugs against the documentation for not adequately explaining the requirements on the newItemURL parameter and against the implementation for failing to provide a valid NSError pointer on failure in this case. Definitely. I want to verify that I *can* make it work if the replacement item is already in the Documents tree / replacement directory, and then I'll be spending some time on the bug reporter.

Scripting Bridge header file problem
Hi all, I'm trying to use Scripting Bridge to send AppleScript to InDesign CS5.5. I created the header file from scripting definitions... It's a huge file - 10.2 MB. Added it to the project. Now the project won't compile because the InDesign header file contains tons of duplicate declarations of various methods. For example, mergeWith: declared 3 times for various InDesign classes. It's unthinkable to correct all of them - there's over 500 errors Is there a way to deal with it? Obviously, I don't need all the classes. So I guess I just should delete whatever I don't need from the header file and correct a few remaining matching methods (if any). Or is there a better way to fix it?

Looking for sample code to support NSRect resize in a view
Hello, In a new project I am developing in Lion I display a number of items in a standard view. Each of these items is bounded by a NSRect. I would like to be able to click on an item, display the rectangle around it and then click on the right, left, top or bottom of the rectangle and drag it to change its size. I think that support for the NSCursor Class is pretty much what I need although this class seems to lack the very useful four corner diagonal resize cursor icons. I have found some code using google that at least contains the cursor types resizeLeftCursor, resizeRightCursor, resizeUpCursor and resizeDownCursor that I can adapt for my purpose but I was wondering if I am overlooking some class or sample code that implements this functionality.

Re: Lion - CopiesOnScroll Bug with table view
Sweet. Thanks. It turned out to be non-integral frame of the scrollview's content view. Oddly, the scrollview itself had an integral frame, and it's the scrollview's frame that I set to be non-integral accidentally, through my custom split view. The non-integral numbers comes from the mouse dragged event. I noticed this somewhere else; it seems that mouse dragged events now have fractional values in Lion. -- Seth On Aug 19, 2011, at 9:48 AM, Raleigh Ledet wrote: A) Does the scrollview overlap your side view by a pixel or more?

iPhone app behaves differently on every other launch
One of my colleagues at work wrote a small test app to work on a bit of custom UI. It's a simple app based on the View-based app stationery. She has run into a vexing problem: on one run of the app, it works fine. On the second, her view controller's view does not appear. The next run, all is fine. The next, broken. It is exactly every other time that it works. This is all in the sim. I've tried quitting the sim, resetting it, etc. It always, without fail, alternates behavior every other launch, no matter what else you do. What little debugging I've done shows that -didFinishLaunching is always called, but that the view fails to load every other time. That is, the view controller's -viewDidLoad is only called every other launch. -didFinishLaunching installed the view controller as the window's root view controller, then calls -makeKeyAndVisible. Both those outlets are never nil. Any ideas? Thanks, Rick ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: iPhone app behaves differently on every other launch
I would check 2 things: 1) Is there anything in the view controller that's maintaining a persistent boolean state that toggles each time its awakeFromNib is called? 2) Does it do the same thing when you deploy to an actual iPad?

Actually we found the culprit. I posted the solution to the list.

Help! Gesture getting canceled
I've implemented a drag-and-drop feature in a complex UITableView custom view. Basically, you can drag from one row onto another (rather than between rows). Now, this is complicated, but mostly works. Now, I've implemented autoscroll for the table by putting a long press gesture recognizer on a small drag handle view in each of the cells (when in edit mode). This works well, until the cell scrolls out of view. At that point, the gesture is canceled. I could try to put the GR on the the view that contains all my other table view stuff, but then I have to do the cell (and drag image) hit testing myself. Worse, though, is that view won't get the touches because the cells will. I could put an invisible view on top of the table and add the GR to that, but then I'll have to work some magic to allow all other touches down into the table. I'm kind of stuck. Any suggestions?
