Re: Finding out about new windows.

This is a good part of the solution. You also want to consider your window level. Rather than taking over the entire screen, move your window level up to NSModalPanelWindowLevel-1 and put a masking window at NSModalPanelWindowLevel-2. That way the modal dialog will pop up over your app. -Rob On T

Re: [NSPipe pipe] returning nil (running out of filehandles?)

I haven't experimented with CC_MD5, but we do have code which calculates MD5s (calculated via simple C code). Is CC_MD5 optimized e.g. using SSE or AltiVec? Should I expect to see a perf boost if I swapped in this code instead of our regular C code? Jean-Daniel Dupas wrote: Le 2 avr. 08 à 01
