Re: Yet another privileged-helper-tool question: how to launch from a system-preferences panel?

I could, but this is ugly and insecure, and I’m afraid if that Cocoa-App has any UI footprint, it’s also unacceptable in terms of user experience. Notice Apple’s own “Sharing” system-preference panel launches/quits daemons with no problem, though I don’t know if any of them runs privileged.

Re: NSTableView registerNib:forIdentifier: - multiple IDs in a single NIB

Actually there is - the identifier. You set the NIB *and* the identifier. And I was able to make it work right after I sent the email (isn’t that how it is always?) It seems that my “isNarrow” property wasn’t being set by the time the view was loading where we were initializing it. I wasn’t

NSTableView registerNib:forIdentifier: - multiple IDs in a single NIB

I have a NIB with two views that I want to use depending on circumstances. I call one “weatherCell” and one “weatherCellNarrow”. I register it like this: - (NSString*)identifierForWeatherCell { return _narrowView ? @"weatherCellNarrow":@"weatherCell"; } nib = [[NSNib alloc]

drawRect: wrong scale in a programmatically created window

Hi all, I have a command line tool in a Terminal session (service) that generates PNGs via NSBezierPath drawing. In this tool I create the view and corresponding window like so mapView = [[ESMMapView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, _imageSize.width, _imageSize.height)];

I keep eyeing a program that you can install to work with Xcode and autoformat source code. You know, things like automatically fixing spacing around arithmetic operators and other important types of punctuation. This is oddly important in Swift, where the compiler can’t interpret things like

Another CFTypeRef question

Hi, Does the pointer value of a CFTypeRef change during it’s lifetime? Can I safely uses the string value of the pointer %p as a key to a dictionary? All the Best Dave ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin

No. It does not change. A CF object has a single address for its lifetime. > On Jan 14, 2016, at 06:42, Dave wrote: > > Hi, > > Does the pointer value of a CFTypeRef change during it’s lifetime? Can I > safely uses the string value of the pointer %p as a key to a
