Re: ack no class

Maybe start up that generated app in gdb with a breakpoint set on  
NSLog? When it breaks you could look at the backtrace. That may at  
least tell you where the message is being generated, which may then  
tell you why.

This appears to be written to 'stderr' and is occuring somewhere
between [NSApp run] and the [applicationDidFinishLaunching] method in
the app delegate - ie: it appears to be somewhere inside OsX/Cocoa.

I have been unable to reproduce this myself, but it's occurring on at
least one other machine with an identical config to mine - an Intel
Mac with OS X 10.5.6.

Has anyone else encountered this?

From the few similar cases I've found via google, Safari beta4 has
been suggested as a cause but I have that installed and am not getting
this error.

It's not really a biggy, as it doesn't seem to affect the app in any
way, it's just pretty ugly for users of an apparently 'basic like'
language.

This isn't obviously coming from Apple's code. I'm guessing it's  
printed by some plugin or haxie or something. Perhaps it's a web  
browser extension or add-on that is confused by changes in Safari 4.


Compare the installed software on your machine and the reproducible  
case you found. You can use `info shared` in gdb or the Xcode debugger  
console to print the libraries loaded in the process; if this is the  
fault of a plugin then you'll see it on their machine but not yours.


The breakpoint on NSLog suggestion also might help; that message is  
formatted like NSLog output.

ack no class

Hi,

I'm the author of BlitzMax, a multi-platform 'basic like' compiler.
