Dear Michael,
You are right. There is no RunLoop in the code. Actually, although I have
got to know the term, RunLoop, when starting to learn Cocoa for two months,
until now I have not seen a sample code about RunLoop in any resources. So I
don't know how to program with it.
I have one question. If I put the synchronous notification posts into a
NSOperationQueue, it must also get asynchronous notification, right? Is the
solution proper?
Best regards,
Bing
