Are you trying to make sure that the controls in your application are
properly accessible to assistive applications (such as VoiceOver)?
If so, and if you use standard Cocoa UI element code, everything is
already
made accessible for you by accessibility code built into Cocoa at a
very low
level. You don't have to worry about it.
You only have to make your UI elements accessible if you're
creating custom
UI elements. In that case, there is extensive accessibility
documentation
for how to do this in Cocoa applications (and separate
documentation for
Carbon applications).
Our app uses only Cocoa for top-level elements such as the window and
its main view. Everything else, and I mean everything, is custom
after that.
Thanks for the link to the "Assistive Applications" release note, I
hadn't seen that.
By the way, most of the sample code on Apple's webpage is
unfortunately in Carbon. I assume most things are similar as always,
but being unused to Carbon (and more comfortable in Cocoa), I'd love
to see some more Cocoa accessibility examples.
