OK,
I think the problem is not in the code but for some reason the Cocoa event
loop is not running or picking events, I suspect so because the +setToolTip
method or the +setHighlightMode don't do anything. That is, I can see the
text ("MR") in the system status bar, but the tooltip does not appear or the
item does not highlight. I think tooltips are implemented as actions to
mouse events.
I understand that 10.2 allows Cocoa and Carbon events on the same app to
coexist, so what is the problem?
So the question seems to be how to get an event in the Cocoa portion of a
Carbon app?
----------------------------------------------
I am trying to do some Cocoa in Carbon. Would someone be so kind as to
review my code because it does not do what I expect.
I am trying to add an NSStatusItem and the have a function called when the
NSStatusItem is clicked.
Any help is much appreciated.
