Answering my own question! :-)
Another thread (regarding nstimer) put me on the right track. Reading
about nstimer suggested the use of nsthread, so wrapping the removal
of images into a thread solved my issue:
-(void)removeImages:(id)sender {
while ( more images to remove ) {
[mImages removeObjectAtIndex:0];
[mImageBrowser reloadData];
etc.
}
}
- (IBAction)listImagesButtonClicked:(id)sender {
NSThread *myThread = [[NSThread alloc] initWithTarget:self
selector:@selector(removeImages:) object:nil];
[myThread start];
}
