I'd say that it kind of hijacks the main run loop. > What is there that you can't do in -applicationDidFinishLaunching:? Anything that I want to happen before a document opens, in case the app is launched by doubleclicking a document. SO… Is it correct to say that one should not do "GUI Things" or "AppKit Stuff" in -applicationWillFinishLaunching: ? If someone could please state that more concisely I'd like to file some document feedback requesting that this restriction be stated in the documentation of -applicationWillFinishLaunching:.
