Hi Andrew,
No I am not talking about the toolbar.
I am referring to the lock icon and the new green certificate
information text displayed by Safari in the window's title bar.
iCal displays a pop-up menu where one can pick the time zone.

Hi!
I would like to replicate the accessory views found in the top
right of window title bars. Examples include Coda, iCal, Safari,...
How can I add subviews to the window's title bar?

Greetings, Pierre,
I think that what you're referring to is the toolbar (class
NSToolbar), as I don't see anything besides that at the top of my
iCal or Safari windows. (On Leopard, the Unified Title/Toolbar
setting in Interface Builder, or through code, makes the title bar,
which is actually separate, look connected to the toolbar.)
If you can afford to target Leopard-only and are willing to put up
with a slightly buggy interface, you can use Interface Builder to
set up the toolbar in the window itself and store it in the nib or
xib that way. Otherwise, if for whatever reason that won't work for
you*, you may wish to use a toolbar delegate to handle the
configuration of the toolbar. The docs have much more info, as well
as "dos" and "dont's" of toolbars (for instance: anything in a
toolbar, last I checked, should have a menu item equivalent; thus if
you have a Reset button or a Send button or whatnot in your toolbar,
there should be a Reset or Send menu item, accessible from the menu
bar). Hope this helps!
* Selectable toolbar items are one example of why the Interface
Builder approach may no work for you -- such items are not currently
configurable in IB. (They're the sort of item used in the iTunes
preferences window, where they act like push-buttons of which only
one can be selected at a time.)
Cheers,
Andrew
