I want the dock icon to have a menu appear above it when clicked, similar to how stacks work in Leopard.

So not that unusual really ... also Dashboard works the same way, dock icon with no menu.

So ultimatley my question is, how do launch/setup my application so that I get a dock icon, but no menu bar and so that no window is opened when launched, only when the user does something that prompts a window.

You don't - because no other app work like this, and it will be very strange for the user when they have a dock icon that does nothing when clicked.


You have to decide what type of app you want - regular app with a menu and a dock icon or background app that run without a dock or menu.
