Loading an AS dict that defines 'point' also causes 'points' to be defined??

Folks, I recently switched to using an .sdef in my Cocoa app for defining AS event handlers. The problem is that suddenly it looks like my app defines the property 'points' and this breaks other apps which send AS events to mine. In my .sdef, I do not define a 'point' or 'points' property, nor d

Re: Targeting Tiger

Hi John, Also worth noting: you can build on Leopard with Xcode 3.x, using the 10.4 SDK, and your app might run fine on a Leopard box. BUT, you still need to test on a native Tiger platform because the systems dylibs are different (and yes, the 10.4 API behaves differently between Tiger and Leopar

Re: Asynchronous timers (without a run loop)

I don't mean to sound patronizing, but unless I have missed some fundamental premise, didn't you just re-invent DO? Maybe the right way to port this framework is to make your API a thin wrapper on top of Obj-C messages, and your set up a wrapper on top of DO setup. Just a thought. - Dave.S On Th

gdb of va_alist?

Folks, I am looking into some legacy code that is called from a third-party library. The function being called has this signature: AStringClass PlatformSpecificImplClass::formatMessage(unsigned int code, va_list* argList) The problem is that on x86 platforms, |argList| seems to point to a valid

WebView security level?

Folks, Disclaimer: I have no idea what I am talking about. I have been asked to increase the "security level" of our WebView-based browser windows. I guess that on a pc/IE, you can somehow set the security level to prevent things like injection attacks and stuff like that? Again, I have no idea

Remove an object from a defaults suite?

Folks, I use -[NSUserDefaults addSuiteNamed:] to add the defaults from a previous version of my app to the defaults search domains. This works fine, except I want to remove a certain key/value pair from the suite. Is there any way to do this? The best plan I can come up with so far is to read t

Scaling an NSImage makes the edges disappear.

Folks, For some reason, I am not able to figure this out. I want to draw a scaled NSImage, but the edges of the image are not drawn, it seems like the resizing actually clips the image. I have an NSBitmapImageRep created from some data. I then create the NSImage like this: NSImage *image = [[N

NSPanel not receiving events.

Folks, I have an NSPanel (not modal), with one button on it. If I instantiate this panel and let the normal app loop run, everything works fine: clicking the button sends a message to the appropriate object. However, if I try to instantiate this panel, then run [NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] myself

Adding an NSColor subclass to NSColorPanel?

Folks, I would like to add instances of a subclass of NSColor to the color panel. The problem is, when you change to another app that does not know about this subclass, the NSColorPanel kind of freaks out and shows all the colors as white (even the system colors) - in some cases it just crashes t

Shipping common app frameworks.

Folks, We need to ship some frameworks that are common to a few of our apps. The question, of course, is where to put these, and how to bundle them with apps so downloads, etc. are not huge and bloated. I'd like to hear other's experience with this. Do you put common frameworks in a place such a

How do I use a WebView in a modal dialog?
