The problem turned out to be in my own code, a typo - my callback handler was not returning the correct value for oserr. (It should return eventNotHandledErr so that the events can propagate through the message handlers.)
Amazing how many times I looked at it without noticing the typo, but writing it up for the mailing list seems to have helped me see the code more objectively. thanks Bruno > On Jun 10, 2016, at 5:07 PM, Bruno Degazio <[email protected]> wrote: > > I’m having a strange problem with a one particular DataBrowser in an OSX > 10.11 project.
