thank you for the reply.
My application is not multithreaded before i call
"waitForDataInBackgroundAndNotify"
This was verified by putting one [NSThread isMultiThreaded] before
making the call.
It returns NO.
However waitForDataInBackgroundAndNotify works fine. My Notification
method gets invoked upon data arrival and everything is fine.
regards,
ameen.

It probably means that your application is already multi threaded.
waitForDataInBackgroundAndNotify does create a new thread. You will
want to register for a NSFileHandleReadCompletionNotification to
receive the data.
Beware that if you read from something other than a actual file (i.e.
device or socket) there might be a problem if you want to close the
file and the read thread is still running (looks like it does not
return on close).
bye. Andreas.
