Hi There,

I used the notification like suggested and I still cannot display my window.

This is my code:

-(void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)notification
{
printf("In Delegate method.\n"); //DEBUG

winCtrl = [[NSWindowController alloc] initWithWindowNibName:@"Window"];

[winCtrl showWindow:self]; //I have also tried [winCtrl showWindow: [winCtrl window]];
}


I have no idea why this does not work, the DEBUG info is printed to stdout and the rest of the code I use all the time so I am honestly none the wiser. I believe the delegate method works otherwise the text would not be printed to stdout but my second window will not display like it is supposed to. I am at a loss.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks.

Phil.

Firstly I need a function to automatically run from a class used in MainMenu.nib when the main.m calls NSApplicationMain();

The NSApplication object provides this facility:

--- snip ---
-applicationDidFinishLaunching:
Sent by the default notification center after the application has been launched and initialized but before it has received its first event.

You'll need to create that delegate object and hook it up to your application object.

Also, I cannot figure out why when I initialize a window from a nib or from a file before the call to NSApplicationMain() the program crashes due to a memory leak.

Programs tend not to crash from memory leaks unless the leak is large+long enough that you run out of memory.


I have tried to put the function in awakeFromNib but then the window wont close itself from that function.

awakeFromNib is not the appropriate place for this.
