Hello. I know this is a newbie question, and I apologize. I've read through
much of the documentation and information I can find, but am still fuzzy on
a couple of things.
I want an application that starts up with a configuration dialog/window,
then proceeds to doing whatever you tell it to do in that dialog (which
in my case is always in a single other window). With IB I have constructed
two windows, and set the config window to come up on startup, and the
other not. The problem is, I've wired the button on the config window to
a method, and that all works. But, I can't figure out what I need to do to
get the next window mapped and operating.
- I read a lot about Document and Document controllers for doing this
sort of thing, but I'm not actually working with documents at all. Do
I still have to have a Document-based application to do multiple windows?
- Do I have to have a separate NIB file for the second window?
- Do I have to manually construct an NSWindowController for that second
window, or should IB have done it for me? If so, how to I use it?
Hopefully this will be an easy question to answer, and if you have
a pointer to a project or tutorial that walks through an app that raises
additional windows during program execution, that would be great!
Thanks...
- Chris
