Root URL and URLByDeletingLastPathComponent

Hello, Sanity check here. I have this code: NSURL *rootURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/"]; NSLog(@"%@", rootURL, [rootURL URLByDeletingLastPathComponent]); Based on the NSURL documentation: > If the receiver’s URL represents the root path, this property contains a copy > of the original URL.

Yosemite NSCollectionView appropriate for spreadsheet-like view?

Hi, I have an NSTableView that may sometimes be called upon to display very large amounts of data. I can handle this in the vertical aspect - while my data source may have many thousands of rows, I only load batches of 500 at a time, and NSTableView doesn't slow down for rows not displayed. Thi

Re: LGPL code in the Mac App Store?

Hi, Thanks to everyone who answered or commented on this question. This is my understanding of one path forward. (And everybody sing along, I am not a lawyer, and the fact that the license is so convoluted that almost literally everyone feels the need to make this disclaimer is one of the thing

LGPL code in the Mac App Store?

Hi, I’m working on a program that I will be submitting to the Mac App Store that uses LGPL code. I have recently learned that the license requires the capability for the end user to create their own version of the LGPL library to link against the application (I have been compiling the source di

Caching CIContext?

Hi, I have an NSImageView with a custom drawing routine. It works as expected most of the time, but sometimes the image is not drawn - the reason was not obvious. Once when this happened, I opened a popover window and saw that image drawn in its background, so it appears I’m doing something inc

Draggable area of NSPopover

Hi, I’ve implemented an NSPopover. Currently part of the view is empty, and part contains a graph (of class CPTGraphHostingView, an NSView subclass from Core Plot). When the popover is attached, the entire view is draggable, which means I can’t interact with the plot as the mouse events are bei

Auto Layout with NSSplitView, NSScrollView

Hi, I have a couple of questions about using auto layout (AL) with NSSplitView and NSScrollView. I have watched the (excellent) WWDC videos from 2012, but am having problems. I'm trying to implement an NSSplitView (not a custom view that's similar to NSSplitView) and want to retain the behavio

Getting mouse events in view placed in NSTableRowView

Hi, I'm having a problem with a subclass of NSTableRowView I'm trying to implement. I have custom NSTableCellView that contains a button. When I press the button, I want that row to expand in height. I would like to then place a custom NSView into that new space (think of it as a detail view of

Bulletproof way to create a new CGBitmapContext from an existing image?

Hi, I have some code where I'm downloading images from the internet. They're probably all going to be jpegs, but I'm not making that assumption in my code. I have no control over the images. I'm creating a CGBitmapContext to manipulate them. Further, I'm scaling the image (could be up or

NSDateFormatter and NSCell oddness

Hello, I'm trying to replicate the Finder's behaviour for date fields when resizing. I found this on the archives which pretty much has the answer: http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2005/8/9/143911 I'm trying to update it so that it returns the correct value for the current
