What kinds of messages need to be sent? I mean are you able to alter the project from a member's window? Or do you want to make sure that an alteration in the project would be reflected in a member even if the member was opened before the project?

Definitely the latter, but also I would like to account for the former. At the moment I can't think of a concrete example where I'd need to modify the project from a member (but I definitely need to be able to find out which project owns the member), but I'd like to make it possible in future versions if necessary.


sharedDocumentController. You can use it as an arbiter between the mainmenu controller, other documents or anything else that you'd like. The door can swing both ways if you need to communicate document to controller and controller to document.

Yeah. I'm thinking that's the way to go.


I could be missing what your goal is though. I mean working in a project like that, it is easy to find out the path of each open document and if the open document is a child of the project you can send messages by accessing it in the array of open documents or through the shared controller.

That's what I want to do, I've just never done it and wasn't sure if there was a more "correct" way of doing it.
