In my application I instantiate a MainController (the delegate having 
"awakeFromNib) from where all actions are dispatched. In order to send messages 
to the displaywindow residing in MainController, there is the problem how to 
find this MainController from other callers (possibly on other threads). Now it 
is coded as follows:

In MainController.c: 
  static MainController *controller = nil;
  controller = self; /* in its init method */
  + (void) message:(NSString *)msg;
    { dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{[controller message:msg];});}
  - (void) message:(NSString *)msg;

I am not very happy with the static variable but do not see another way to 
accomplish this. I fear my solution is not as much in the spirit of Cocoa 
programming as it should be. 
Is there a better way?
