error: 'CocoaDevGroup' undeclared (first use in this function)
... As I recall, you just posted your question about this this
morning or yesterday some time. Be patient. If someone has an answer,
they'll provide it. Re-posting (especially while ranting -- everyone
has trouble with their projects) will only annoy.
As to your question, I have no answer myself, but it seems like
Apple's doing "unnatural" things with their own API to achieve the
functionality you're going for. You could hack something together by
using private API, but the standard disclaimer applies (ie, "don't do
it, it could break"). If you insist, you could look in the headers
and see what private methods it employs and start poking around with
a subclass from there.
It should be self-evident that if you're seeing millions of "Q"
but no "A" on any given subject, there probably is no "A", so you
need to make your own. You can either wait for someone to release
their own findings or be the pioneer yourself. It's unfortunate, but
that's usually how this type of thing goes. :-}
If this is for an application you intend to release to the public,
I strongly discourage you from trying using private API (see standard
disclaimer above - those private methods could change in any OS
update and break your app). I would recommend instead you either live
with the current limitations or go another route design-wise. OR you
could roll your own complete replacement so you have total control.
You can also file an enhancement request ( bugreport.apple.com )
in hopes that this control's publicly-accessible functionality will
be improved in future versions of OS X.
That's about as helpful as I can be on this subject. Probably
about as helpful as anyone else can as well. Good luck!
