My apologies ... I realized as soon as I hit 'send'. Unfortunately, it was out of my outbox before I could stop it. ;-)

As to your response, I see your addition of "if (anItem)", but other than that, your code appears to do the same thing as mine. I am allocating, then initializing an NSTabViewItem. Checking for a valid reference is one thing, but making a valid reference in the first place is what I appear to be having trouble with.

Hey, List:

Why does this:

NSTabViewItem * anItem = [[NSTabViewItem alloc] initWithIdentifier @"all"];
[anItem setLabel:@"All"];
[tabView addTabViewItem:anItem];

Do this:

2004-02-04 22:39:56.518 MyApp[4698] Exception raised during posting of notification. Ignored. exception: *** -[NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:]: attempt to insert nil value

... the tabView is an IBOutlet.

anItem is NULL, when you try to add it.
-It didn't get allocated.
addTabViewItem, is like addObject for arrays, and it's not allowed to add NULL (nil) objects.

You should at least check for NULL objects before adding them:

NSTabViewItem *anItem;

anItem = [[NSTabViewItem alloc] initWithIdentifier @"all"];
[anItem setLabel:@"All"];
if(anItem)
{
[tabView addTabViewItem:anItem];
}


Love,
Jens
