There's no runloop running yet when -applicationWillFinishLaunching: is called. You can see this for yourself by installing a CFRunLoopObserver in main(), before calling NSApplicationMain. As such, this is a very sensitive point in the app's life cycle. Among other things, AppKit's automatically-installed autorelease pool hasn't been installed yet (which you can verify by putting a call to the undocumented NSPopAutoreleasePool function in -applicationWillFinishLaunching:). That's why you're getting all the autorelease pool warnings on the console. Then NSRunAlertPanel is going to run the app in a modal mode before the app has finished setting itself up. I'm not surprised that doesn't work. What is there that you can't do in -applicationDidFinishLaunching:? --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
