It does seem to require an .app bundle, yes.
I can successfully run it from Terminal rather than Finder, though, as
long as the executable is in a bundle.

If you build the project with XCode, it would automatically create
the bundle structure for you and it would work.
Without the bundle directory, the main menu won't show correctly
(e.g. cp your executable to ~/).
The solution seems to be creating a bundle directory structure and
run from Finder - even if there's just the executable, without any
info.plist or pkginfo.

Hi Daqi.
Could you post your code or project? I haven't noticed any problems
myself.
Please note that the latest (Leopard-only) solution is here:

I've been trying to create a Cocoa GUI application without IB.
Everything
works fine except for the NSMenu.
After digging over the internet I found a solution from '
http://lapcatsoftware.com/blog/2007/06', by using some
undocumented methods
and member variables.
I succeeded in creating the application, and what I found
interesting is, it
seems that if I run the application from Terminal, no menu
would be shown (the Windows still work fine). The only way to have
the menus
working properly is to create an Application.app directory
structure, and
run from Finder. Apps with static Nibs work fine both running from
Terminal
and Finder.
Again I'm doing this only to understand how the system works. Did
I miss
something or it's just the way the framework was designed?
