First off, excuse me if I've missed something basic, but I've finally
got 'round to reading up on Cocoa and am trying to get my head around
some of the concepts...
I've been playing around writing some small apps to try stuff out. I
did a custom about box (i.e., call my own code instead of calling
-orderFrontStandardAboutPanel) and noticed that the Print item was
enabled. I fixed it easily enough by writing my own -respondsToSelector
and returning NO for that case, but it got me to wondering about
something. If I was writing a C++ based app, I'd subclass the window
class with a "non-document" class that didn't allow printing, and then
subclass that class to handle the specifics for different types of
windows. Is that the best way to do it for Cocoa/Obj-C, i.e.,
NSWindow -> NonDocumentWindow -> AboutBoxWindow
NSWindow -> NonDocumentWindow -> PreferencesWindow
etc.? Or is there a "better practices" way of doing it that I haven't
yet figured out?
Thanks,
steve
