If so, what looping mechanism should I use to wait for notifications?
Notifications work through CFRunLoop, so you'll have to run the run
loop at various intervals in order to process notifications.
Sorry, it's been pointed out to me that I'm only half-correct. Let me
try again:
1. Notifications posted using NSNotificationCenter are processed
immediately on the calling thread.
2. Notifications queued using NSNotificationQueue are processed
through CF/NSRunLoop.
3. Notifications posted using NSDistributedNotificationCenter are
processed through CF/NSRunLoop.
InstantMessage notifications are posted using method #1, however,
they are received in the first place through a connection to
iChatAgent, so a CF/NSRunLoop will still be necessary.
