So basically once I've compiled the daemon, have it run a post script that will change the path to go back 4 directories instead of 1 if I was to place it in Contents/Daemon/Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/Daemon? Thanks for the response, Mr. Gecko On Apr 8, 2011, at 8:48 AM, Sherm Pendley wrote: >

Or do a symlink of MyApp.app/Contents/Frameworks into your daemon Contents directory (using a build script too). cd Daemon.app/Contents/ ln -s ../../../Frameworks Frameworks (I didn't check the count of '..' so it may be wrong, but you get the idea). > Yeah, that's how I'd do it, add a "run scr

Re: Class UITableViewCellContentView is implemented in both and . One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.

It means that UIKit now defines a class called UITableViewCellContentView and that collides with one of your classes. Objective C has this inherent weakness that if a class with the same name is implemented in more than one place, they fight for which one gets used. Since you can't change UIKit,

Storing a block in a CF/NSMutableDictionary?

Hi. In my garbage collection-required app, I'm trying to store a code block (void (^)(void)) in a CFMutableDictionary. The docs says copy/retain/release can be sent to a block, suggesting this can be done. But it's not working. When I later retrieve the block and call it, I get an EXEC_BAD_ACCES

Hmm. Reading the docs there again, it also says: "Typically, you shouldn’t need to copy (or retain) a block. You only need to make a copy when you expect the block to be used after destruction of the scope within which it was declared. Copying moves a block to the heap." So, I expressly copied
