Hello !
I don't know if this got answered but here is my attempt. It is just a
basic way of programmatically setting
an object as a application delegate and programmatically creating a
button on the applications main
window and setting it to perform an action when clicked.
I know that there are some issues about the way this is implemented
but it points the way to go.
Since I am a newbie my self any suggestions are more than welcome.
Brief explanation follows.
In Interface Builder:
- in MainMenu.xib create generic NSObject by adding it from the Library
- select that NSObject and in the Identity Inspector make it an
instance of our ApplicationController class
In Xcode:
- in awakeFromNib we make our self as the application delegate
- in applicationDidFinishLaunching: we tell the application to make
the first window that it finds as main
window, because at this time there is still no main window
- then we create our button instance, set its action as a selector
with our action method, set our self as a target of that action,
and perform all necessary initializations for our button (title, type,
etc)
- we add our button on the main window and then release the button
- in dealloc we remove our self as being application delegate
- okButtonAction: is our button's action method that performs NSBeep()
function
Code follows.
ApplicationController.h
#import Cocoa/Cocoa.h
@interface ApplicationController : NSObject
{
}
@end
ApplicationController.m
#import ApplicationController.h
@implementation ApplicationController
- (void)awakeFromNib
{
[NSApp setDelegate:self];
}
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
{
[NSApp makeWindowsPerform:@selector(makeMainWindow) inOrder:NO];
NSButton * okButton = [[NSButton alloc]
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(10.0, 10.0, 96.0, 32.0)];
[okButton setAction:@selector(okButtonAction:)];
[okButton setTarget:self];
[okButton setTitle:@OK];
[okButton setButtonType:0];
[okButton setBezelStyle:11];
[[[NSApp mainWindow] contentView] addSubview:okButton];
[okButton release];
}
- (void)dealloc
{
[NSApp setDelegate:nil];
[super dealloc];
}
- (void)okButtonAction:(id)sender
{
NSBeep();
}
@end
Thanks.
