I'm trying to get QuickLook preview to work with NSDocument - much as in the
QuickLookDownloader example provided by Apple.
I thought I had it all set up correctly -
#import
@interface Document : NSDocument
{
QLPreviewPanel* previewPanel;
}
Something is clearly amiss though - becaus
Thank you Jens. I have found the proper way to manage that.
When the user imports a new image, I quickly copy the image to a temporary
folder, then I add this latest file reference to the document¹s
NSFileWrapper.
I just create the file¹s fileWrapper using its URL, so I do not read its
content and
I realized I could do this: 1. use just an NSTextField, and 2. if (hiding)
textField.stringValue = @"**";
Is there something I'm missing?

@Mike. Thanks I'll look at this - I knew I wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel.

@Uli. My little solution actually works rather nicely (at least in Greek and

Please don't do this. NSSecureTextFieldCell uses a custom field editor that

Yeah, that demo issue came up yesterday, so I filed my own rdar://16013973
and as you know, it always helps to add duplicates! I marked mine as an
issue with Security and Always. I suggested only showing the hints on the
actual device and doing a secondary broadcast without the hint on

Hi list,
I'm looking for the right design pattern for providing different types of
access to an SQLite database.
Currently I have a database object where queries are run on a serial
NSOperationQueue and each operation has a completion block for reporting its
results. The operation queue is an
Very true, and that's why I asked Apple in a Radar to fix it since, if it
CAN be done, they're more in a position to do it (masters of the hardware
and software) than relying upon each developer to make secondary screens.
Maybe the hint text could be a layer not available for secondary device

I am deferring to the expertise here and will use Mike Abdullah's password

portables. This is not a corporate entity. I'm not claiming my app is secure:

Doesn't matter. Individual people have just as much right to security as

Also, consider dropping the table indexes before you start inserting. After the
you're done inserting, rebuild the indexes. This should give you an an
additional performance boost.
For even more speed, consider turning off the following setting:

Good advice. Thanks Jens. Do you know of any samples that employ good behavior?
Right now, I'm playing with SMJobBless.
Finally, does anyone know if the Mac App Store would accept an app with
elevated permissions (admin permissions to enter a password)? (or am I
confusing things?)

That's my understanding as well. So what to do?

Pretty clear that you can’t sell the app via the App Store. You could sell it
via your own site (with proper code signing so that Gatekeeper lets you
through). Or you could reconsider whether
I am trying to optimise a Cocoa app which spends most of it's time in a
for-loop looking at the bytes of a huge array.
So I decided to use dispatch_apply to divide the work of the for-loop onto
different cpus (I seem to have 8 of them).
Note: no two threads ever share a common byte of this array
