Several of us have had ongoing private discussions with the Apple engineers
about problems like this with the new 10.2 and later format and Both Formats
nib files. I don't have any feedback from Apple yet, but they have my nib
file and at least one other that experiences similar problems. From the
number of reports like yours that are accumulating on the lists, it seems
clear that there is a bug somewhere -- but it's hard to tell where.
Some of us can build and launch our applications, but when running them we
eventually get errors of various types. In my case, it's always
"copyWithZone - selector not recognized", suggesting a problem with the
NSCopying protocol and the keyed archiving feature in the new nib format. In
my case, if I try to launch IB by double-clicking my troubled nib file, IB
quits unexpectedly -- until I open some other nib file first, then I can
open the troubled one safely. If I resave it as a pre-10.2 format nib, all
problems disappear.
If you can generate a reproducible case which involves almost no code and
almost no nib file objects, you should send it to Vince DeMarco and Henri
Lamiraux at Apple. Unless they are ready to come on the list and tell us
that they've found the problem....
