Can you name a single non-apple framework based on carbon?
MacApp, PowerPlant, MacZoop, SWT, Nitrogen (not really a framework,
but close enough).
Are you sure? WaitNextEvent based event dispatch is oblivious
to what composite windows are doing behind the scene. How can
they work together?
In the context of Florian's specific problem, compositing status of a
window doesn't change how the window handles text input, so it's
irrelevant in this case. In general, however, event handlers are
always called within WaitNextEvent as appropriate, so you can still
use WaitNextEvent for your main loop, and install event handlers on
any event target, and they'll be called properly. You won't get
updateEvts out of WaitNextEvent for compositing windows, of course,
and you wouldn't get mouseDown events either since those would be
dispatched via Control Manager events.
