I've got a modal dialog with a couple of NSTextFields. Changes weren't getting saved, so I thought I'd better call commitEditing on the text field before retrieving its value with stringValue.

But when I call commitEditing on the NSTextField it gives the error: -[NSTextField commitEditing]: unrecognized selector sent to instance

But there are no warnings from the compiler that commitEditing is an invalid method.

What am I doing wrong?


Call -validateEditing instead, that should do what you want.

You don't get a warning because -commitEditing is implemented as a category on NSObject, which means that NSTextField does effectively implement it. It's just that -commitEditing is not the same as - validateEditing.
