Every thread in a Cocoa application must have an NSAutoreleasePool in place at all times. The function NSApplicationMain() sets this up for you and calls NSApplication's -run method. You *could* make your application work by placing "NSAutoreleasePool* pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]" as the very first line in your main() function, but this is VERY BAD FORM(tm). If you want something done when your application starts up, instanciate a new class in your MainMenu.nib file, make it the NSApplication's delegate and implement -applicationDidFinishLaunching: (see the docs for NSApplication). Better yet, you could (in about 5 minutes) hook up this code to be the action of a button in a window and have all your debugging info displayed right in that window (no NSLog's needed).

P.S. If you just want a low-overhead testing project, just make a Foundation tool.

I'm a cocoa newbie... I would to make an irc client using cocoa and obj-c. I
have downloaded SmallSockets framework from sourceforge.net.

This is the code to connect. I send a initial authenticatin message for now.
But there are some problems:

- some cocoa errors;
- the result message will be visibile only when the connection timed out by
server.

This is the main.c code:

*********************************************

#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#import "Socket.h"

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
Socket *socket;
NSString *stringa;
NSMutableData* response;
NSString* responseString;
NS_DURING
stringa = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"NICK daniele\n\rUSER dani . .
:ciao"];

socket = [Socket socket];
socket = [[Socket alloc] init];
[socket connectToHostName: @"irc.edisontel.it" port: 6667];
[socket writeString: stringa];

response = [[[NSMutableData alloc] init] autorelease];
// [socket readData:response];

/* while ( [socket readData:response] )
{
// Read until other side disconnects
}*/
[socket readData:response];
responseString = [[[NSString alloc] initWithData:response
encoding:[NSString defaultCStringEncoding]]
autorelease];

NSLog(@"data: %s",responseString);
NS_HANDLER
NS_ENDHANDLER
return NSApplicationMain(argc, argv);
}
