It seems to me quite possible that there might be events that don’t appear in the queue until you ask for an event. That is, a data source of some kind might have triggered, but it’s not checked (and turned into an event) until you ask. This might be a reasonable optimization in a mature OS, and it might be a reason why there’s no “number of events in the queue” API, and why polling is neither trivial nor encouraged. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
