I have a non Document based app. If the window is closed, I want to
have the user be able to get it back by clicking on the dock icon.
(Note that Apple's Mail does this). I have implemented
NSApplication's
- (void) applicationDidBecomeActive:(NSNotification *)notif
Instead of that, implement these:
- (BOOL)applicationShouldOpenUntitledFile:(NSApplication *)sender;
- (BOOL)applicationOpenUntitledFile:(NSApplication *)theApplication;
Have the first one return YES and have the second one reopen your
window. They work even in a non-document-based app.
Thanks, Andy; works!
Q: I presume it doesn't matter what value is returned for -
applicationOpenUntitledFile (I happen to be returning NO because no
file was opened).
but that is only invoked if the dock icon is clicked when the app
is not active. I need to know when it is clicked while the app is
active. I've looked through various docs, searched with Google, and
on Cocoabuilder, but the answer has eluded
me._______________________________________________
