Cocoa and REALbasic communication?


  • Subject: Cocoa and REALbasic communication?

I've asked this question on a REALbasic mailing list too. Seeking any ideas you may have.

I'm trying to write a screensaver using REALbasic. At first glance, this seems impossible because RB can't generate the right kind of code bundle (as a subclass of NSScreensaverView).

However, I think there's almost always a way to get things done. I'm wondering if I might be able to create a screensaverview subclass in Cocoa (as usual) that then somehow magically opens the REALbasic application and talks to it. I could imagine doing this with AppleEvents but it seems there may be some tricks to getting Mac OS X to treat the cocoa screensaver process and the RB app as a unitary thing.

Any ideas? Don't be shy -- nothing is too weird!
