Further info (sorry for the reply to myself): Having taken approach (2), if I dump [myTreeController contents], they are ostensibly correct (e.g. having added a couple of items): 2008-04-16 01:56:55.558 Test[4187:10b] content ( { children = ( (entity: Item; id

Resizing NSView with CABasicAnimation

Folks, I'm trying to perform a basic resize on an NSView subclass using an explicit animation. The code compiles and runs without crashing, but also without performing the resize. I'm obviously missing something very basic, but I haven't been able to find the answer elsewhere. Here's m

NSURL and certificates

when I try to fetch a web page on an internal server using: [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString: theURLString] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding error:&theError]; I get the following error: {contents = "NSUnderlyingError"} = Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1203 UserInfo

Re: NSURL and certificates

AFAIK, you'd need to use the lower-level NSURL* APIs (e.g. NSURLConnection) instead of stringWithContentsOfURL, which is going to be a little more work. Unless there is some trick I don't know about... Also, you don't really want ASCII encoding—probably UTF8 is more what you had in mind. ASCII

Re: Memory leak when re-alloc Methods

Unless you perform [blisterModelClass release] in your NSView's - dealloc, you are still potentially leaking. Mike On Apr 15, 2008, at 5:17 PM, Mario Gajardo Tassara wrote: El 15-04-2008, a las 14:21, [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: I have a nasty leak problem when i realloc several methods of

NSTreeController and NSOutlineView: How do I get to the outline view's item

Hi, this probably sounds terribly stupid but apparently I can't find this out on my own so here I am asking for help again: I have a NSDocument subclass with a simple tree structure attached to an NSOutlineView via NSTreeController and bindings. I learned - through this list - to add it

CGBitmapRef and User Space Coordinates

Hi All, I have a CGBitmapRef that I am using as a backing store for my NSView subclass. The CGBitmapRef has the same dimensions as my NSView. Each time I draw to the backing store, I call my view's setNeedsDisplayInRect: method to invalidate the area in which I have drawn. Is it necess
