You might try just getting the name as an NSString with:

NSString applicationName = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey: CFBundleExecutable];

Than populate the dialog with that string (using the technique shown by Mark.

I have some text labels in a registration dialog that contain the application name eg

"xxx Demonstration"
"Thank you for purchasing xxx"

and so on.

I would like this registration dialog to be general enough that I can use it in multiple applications. Is there a simple way to replace the xxx with the actual application name at runtime? At the moment I'm thinking I'll have to wire every label up to my registration controller and do it in awakeFromNib, but I was hoping for something easier.

Thanks!

You could create a subclass of NSTextField that does its own replacement. That would save you from having to create outlets.
