Hello everyone. In my Cocoa Plugin, which runs in a Carbon host application, I need to access and manipulate a host-created Carbon window.
My Cocoa interface would be NSWindow *cocoaWrap = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithWindowRef: hostWindow]; However, when I finish my plugin's work, and I need to release everything and return to the host, I want and need to release the cocoaWrap object I created. Alas, when I do [cocoWrap release]; it closes and dismisses the original host window!!!! This something undesirable, and illegal as far as the host plugin interface goes. If i neglect to release the NSCarbonWindow object (that's what it is really isn't it?) then I crash as soon as I return to the host, because the plugin's memory pool is released, and it contains an object with nonzero retain count. How can I break this catch-22 ? Motti Shneor ------------------------------------------ Senior Software Engineer Waves Audio ltd.
