Is there any way to determine if the active app is not responding (ie
beachballing) from within a Cocoa app?

Drew

Hi Drew, check out the developer app "Spin Control" included with developer tools -- it does exactly this. The about box and help menu has some details that might prove useful to you -- apparently the app flags apps that appear unresponsive to the Window server via CoreGraphics. This might be one way to proceed (or just use Spin Control itself).
