Re: Linking an NSWindow in IB

Sorry I'm on my phone so I can't write a detailed response, but you're just structuring your app kind of backwards. In IB you would want to have a connection between your custom window and an outlet in your app delegate in this case. You would then send the window an "order front" message from

Re: Linking an NSWindow in IB

MYWindow isn’t a window, it’s an NSObject that can act as a window delegate. So creating one isn’t going to create a window. You don’t have any code that creates a window; there’s a window property but nothing that sets it. Also, you’re calling a -showWindow: method on your MyWindow class, but y

Hello Geert, I'm certainly no expert. However, I've noticed that people learning Cocoa (and/or OOP) often directly set things that in fact don't need setting at all. A lot of the basic functionality of Cocoa based apps comes for free. Things like the responder chain usually do the right thin

If all you care about is the logical size of the datafork of a file, NSFileManager's method attributesOfItemAtPath:error: will give you a dictionary, but if you want to factor in the physical size, resource fork, or extended attributes, you'll need to use a lower-level API, such as FSGetCatalogInfo
