Possibly, but the code worked fine in 10.4. Interestingly the complied application worked in 10.5 in deployment mode. I made a few changes to the GUI and this error happened. I changed everything back to the way it was and cleaned the compile and the error continued. On Jun 22, 2008, at 8

Can a nib be confused about its owner?

Since the File's Owner "object" in a nib file is actually a proxy for an object that is provided at runtime, what happens if the nib is expecting NSApplication to be its File's Owner but you called for the nib to be loaded from inside your code using an instance of NSWindowController. Who wins?
