It’s -[NSApplication run] that is responsible for dispatching events, not NSRunLoop. It sounds like you want to be pumping the event loop yourself. Try using -sendEvent: and -nextEventMatchingMask:untilDate:nil inMode: dequeue:YES.

I don't know if this is the same as what I described above. You shouldn’t have to run the runloop yourself; -nextEventMatchingMask: will run it for you.
