I'm looking for some pointers to information on creating dialog boxes with content (# and type of controls) determined at runtime.

All that I really know ahead of time is that there will be a dialog box to gather some data, and that the UI objects in the dialog come from a small, well defined set of types of objects. I don't know what order they're going to be in, or how many there will be (small number, almost always), either in aggregate or or each type.

I'm pretty sure that I could just do it programmatically, creating and laying things out on the fly, but I'm hoping there's a simpler way. Most of the application is standard windows in a nib file.

What I'm wondering is whether there are tools that would help with this... Although I've done some basic GUI work on OS X I know that there are plenty of things in the toolkit that I'm not aware of.

Anyone know of anything that would make this simpler?

Kevin
