Ken,
I want to open another application (say, Safari) in the "layer"
just behind my application.
"Solution" 2:
[ws launchApplication:@"Safari"]; // opens Safari in front
[NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES]; // pushes my app in front,
effectively right above Safari
Problem with solution 2: I must be doing it wrong, because my own
application's window doesn't ever get its focus back and the GUI
seems to hang.
I think that -activateIgnoringOtherApps: is being done "too soon".
The NSApplicationDeactivatedEventType event is pending and hasn't
had a chance to be processed, yet. (…) So, you have to implement a
simple trampoline method.
Thanks for pointing out the potential cause. I read up on Obj-C
trampoline methods/objects (pretty cool, actually!) and understand the
basic idea, but honestly I'm not seeing the connection to my problem.
Why and how would such a trampoline object help in delaying the call
to -activateIgnoringOtherApps:? Could you maybe sketch out how the
trampoline might look?
Thanks,
Yang_______________________________________________
