Can someone point me to a definitive explanation of the "File's Owner"
Icon in IB and the use thereof? I have looked in my three Cocoa
books, googled, and checked the archives, but I still do not have a
handle on this. One place it says it is NSApp, in another a
placeholder for an object not in the NIB. Both seem right in the
context given, but then I look at examples of NIBs and become
re-confused. To wit: In the Hillegass book his doc-based "RaiseMan"
example has buttons and text fields connected to the "File's Owner"
Icon, while in the Garfinkel/Mahoney book the "Calculator" project, a
straight Cocoa App, has everything connected to an instance of his
controller. Nothing is connected to "File's Owner!" Is this just two
ways to skin the same cat? For that matter, when do you instantiate a
controller in a NIB and when don't you? I'm still not clear on that
one, either. Any and all help welcomed!
Read the IB FAQ and Release notes its all explained there
