I want to use a C++ software library which uses class names "nil" and "Nil" for
a Cocoa application.
Including the headers will fail due to name conflicts with the macros "Nil" and
"nil".
What are my options?

You might have to wrap that sucker, so that you can compile that class as
straight C++ and never include its header from Objective-C++, but instead use
your wrapper class from Objective-C++.

Hi all,
I have an NSTableView whose data source is bound to an NSArrayController. To
one of its columns (displaying a custom type) I have attached a custom
NSFormatter subclass. The NSFormatter correctly returns NO from
getObjectValue:forString:error: if the supplied string is not acceptable.

Thanks for the reply Quincey.
I confess to have mis-described my situation somewhat: while most columns were
bound, several instead used the classical NSTableViewDataSource
I have an NSTableview column where each cell contains a file name. I use
tooltips (addToolTipRect and NSToolTipOwner protocol) to show the complete
path to the file when the user hovers the mouse over the cell. This works fine
unless the name of the file exceeds the column width - 3 pixels. i.e

Thanks Kyle.
Is that the only way? Or is there something easier that would bypass the flag?
In my case, I am not sure i would be concerned if a custom kernel was required.

There are several that I know of. But my question first, to you, is why? I

Are not both Objective-C and C++, as well as Objective-C++
case-sensitive? If so, Nil and nil should be different symbols. If
they should be, and really are different symbols, but still conflict
somehow, then you've actually got a different problem than you think
you do.
