Hi all,
I wonder if I could get some clarity on this issue.
Hillegass asks, ( challenge chapter 12) to create a custom About Panel.
I have ( surprisingly) done this quite easily :-)...but I am left
with this one puzzle.
**Very** briefly, the set up is as follows.
AppController has an outlet (IBOutlet NSPanel *aboutWindow) and a
method (-(IBAction) showPanel: (id) sender;)
"Custom" xib file;
File's owner = AppController.
File's owner (aboutWindow) outlet points to the NSPanel object in the
xib.
"Main Menu" xib
AppController object to which the "About NewApplication" from the
MainMenu is connected ( pointing to the method "showPanel").
My question is this.
The inspector of File's owner in the "Custom" xib shows, as expected
an outlet ( which is connected) as well as the method "showPanel"
which is *not* connected. In fact, I am unable to "connect" ( if that
is the correct terminology) the "About NewApplication" to this, or to
the File's owner (control-drag), but am able to do so to the
AppController object in the mainMenu.xib
Is this just the way it is, or is there some good logical explanation
for this that will help in my deeper understanding of cocoa?
Thanks in advance.
