When in doubt, I try to type in some method name so that auto-
complete can suggest me methods accessible for the object I'm using.
So by typing "[yourinstancename str" in your code and then hitting
ESC (when "str" gets underlined this means auto-complete has
suggestions available) a menu appear where you can search the method
in there. You just have to guess what would be the function name...

A question from a newbie. I tried to create a simple application
with one
text field and one button. I opened NSTextField Class Reference and
looked
for a getter method in order to get the text that the user has
entered in
the text field. Looked through all the document, which took quite a
while,
but found nothing. Then I looked in the superclass NSControl Class
Reference. Looked in Methods by Task but didn't find anything to
begin with,
but after a while found the getter method stringValue under the
heading of
"Setting the control's value".
My question is if there is some logic to
1. Storing the getter of a text field in NSControl instead of
NSTextField
2. Storing a getter method under the heading "Setting the control's
value"
(instead of something like "Setting/Getting the control's value").
Thanks
