I'm developing an iTunes visualizer plug-in using the new SDK, which supports Cocoa views and by extension, layers.
But debugging these things is awkward because it's a plug-in and you can't run iTunes in a debugger. But you can log stuff to the console, which is something. When I clean-up my visualizer view, I see this in the console: 28/07/11 12:43:40 AM iTunes[22132] attempting to modify layer that is being finalized - 0x1ec78650 This occurs just after my view (which has layers) is deallocated. My visualizer then becomes unusable - the graphics are shot to hell and cease to work, even though it goes through the motions of creating a new view and layers apparently successfully. If I don't remove my view from the iTunes host view when told to, I don't get this error, and my visualizer works OK subsequently. But it doesn't play nice with other visualizers if I don't clean up my view, so I need to do this. Where does this error come from and what does it mean? I think I'm being careful not to attempt to modify or access or invoke any methods on any layers after I perform the clean-up, so this appears to be something internal either to iTunes or to the layers subsystem. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
