Re: Cocoa-dev Digest, Vol 5, Issue 335



OK, thanks. But then in Cocoa you normally use alloc and init together, and that's where the problem is, I think. initWithWindowNibName seems to result in the window being shown automatically.

I am instantiating the window controller, and am trying to figure out at which point I could gain access to its window's memory without showing the window.

"Loading" a window means creating the NSWindow object by unarchiving
it from the nib file. The window object literally does not exist
before loading (and the window controller's private instance variable
is nil). To modify the window object from what's in the nib file, you
need to unarchive (load) it (which does not cause it to display),
change it, then display it with the changes in place.
