HI All -

I've got a method that creates an EO then posts a notification to NSNotificationCentre to tell it's just created the object. A listener then receives the notification and does a bunch of stuff on the EO.

However, the method that creates the EO and fires the notification appears to be waiting for the listener to do it's job before it returns.

Is that normal behavior ?

Yes, that is how it works.


The java docs don't talk about the sequence of events, but I presumed that the notifier would just makes it's notification then get on with whatever it has to do next and not care about what the listeners are doing, or how long it takes them to do it.

Do i just need to stick the listeners job into a thread to get it to run in the background ?


Yes.  Or use some other notification system.
