In the documentation for NSDocument there is a method called -
(void)setWindow:(NSWindow*)aWindow, for which aWindow is described
as "The window to which the receiver’s window outlet points."
Furthermore, if I ctrl-click on the File's Owner in MyDocument.xib
(a document-based app), which is of class MyDocument (subclass of
NSDocument), it *does* show the window outlet there and it *does*
show it pointing to the window.
But I cannot pass messages to the window variable. For example, I
cannot send it the "setTitle:" message.
Looking at the header file, I see that the instance variable in
NSDocument is actually called _window, and furthermore it is @private,
so you can't refer to it directly in your subclass.
I suppose you could use something sneaky like valueForKey:@"window",
but I would recommend using published API instead. I don't know
anything about NSDocument, but the -windowForSheet method that Alex
suggested looks right.
