Showing a modal dialog using -runModalForWindow in an effect

Hey Team.

We have the need to show a modal dialog box when our effect is first displayed. Is there a recommended place to do this? We're currently doing this in -initWithApiManager

I'm trying to use -runModalForWindow for the modal dialog. I grab an NSWindow in a .xib (.nib) file and can display it with -runModalForWindow.

I'm getting some random crashes after showing the dialog. The problem seems to be that as an effect I don't really have an NSApplication to hang onto and -runModalForWindow requires it.

I'm currently using [NSApplication sharedApplication].

Has anyone done this, or something like this? I'd appreciate any
advice or sample code regarding showing a modal dialog when
an effect starts.

Thanks.
