No, I was referring to a NSRunLoop.

Thanks. I'll try that.

When you says "have a run loop" are you talking about something like:

while([song rate]<100.0)
{}

Hi! I've been reading every message about how to play a song with
cocoa, and finally I can't find anything that works. I've made a
simple code, and I want to know what I am doing wrong. Thanks

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <QTKit/QTMovie.h>

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {

	NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];


	NSString *src = @"/Users/bittercold/Desktop/deadbolt.aiff";
	QTMovie *song = [[QTMovie alloc] initWithFile:src error: NULL];
	[song play];

	[pool release];
	return 0;
}

I think the key is in the difference between asynchronous and synchronous.


When you call play, it continues immediately and does not wait for the song to be played.

What you may want to do is to:

- have a run loop

- install a notification observer for the end of the playback and stop the application a this point.

As I usually do this through a QTMovieView, I can't confirm just using [QTMovie play] can work for a song.
