But for catching the case where your app is launched by a double-click, what you want is application:openFile: or application:openFiles: >From the doc: If the user started up the application by double-clicking a file, the delegate receives the application:openFile: message before receiving applicationDidFinishLaunching:. (applicationWillFinishLaunching: is sent before application:openFile:.) If that method returns NO, the application will attempt to open it with openDocumentWithContentsOfURL. Return YES and it assumes you've dealt with it. The runloop is live at this point, because our app shows some UI at that point. > > @end > >> Is it correct to say that one should not do "GUI Things" or "AppKit Stuff" >> in -applicationWillFinishLaunching: ? > > I would say that is a safe rule to live by. > > --Kyle Sluder > _______________________________________________ > > Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) > > Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list. > Contact the moderators at cocoa-dev-admins(at)lists.apple.com > > Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: > http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/cocoa-dev/lrucker%40vmware.com > > This email sent to lruc...@vmware.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
