Storing bundle loaded main class instances in NSArray

2009-04-07 Thread Daniel Luis dos Santos
Hello, I have some code that loads a bundle like : [NSBundle bundleForPath: path] Then I get its main class. Then I cycle through some parameters that initialize that loaded main class and stores each new instance in a NSMutableArray. Problem is that when I do the assignment to

In my application, I have the need to store strings with non-latin characters in a SQLite database. But when I insert them, they become corrupt. When i bind the string to the prepared statement, i do make sure it is in UTF-8: sqlite3_bind_text(sentence_insert_statement, 1, [string UTF8String],

Thank you I.S. and all who replied! :-) It's my understanding that [NSFileManager fileAttributesAtPath:traverseLink:] will do fine for a single file but for directories it won't include the sizes of the subdirectories as Finder does. That's what I got in my testing as well but maybe I'm

Well, directories -are- a single file so it makes sense that the file size refers to exactly the directory and not its contents. Besides, for the general case of looking at files/folders in a particular directory, you could get all the attributes quickly without paying a time penalty to

Fully transparent window opaque to mouse?

Hello all, Is there a way to create a full screen window which has an alpha value of 0 (fully transparent) but which is opaque to mouse events? I have thus far found that setting the window alpha below 0.06 or so causes mouse events to pass through the window. If not, is there a way to install a

Difference between SEL and const char* when sending a message?

Hi everyone. I'm new to Objective-C but I've been working with C++ for years. I'm trying to understand how the selector mechanism works. So far it seems to me that SEL is simply a wrapper for 'const char*', Obj-C compiler maintains a table of all method name - method function pointer pairs and
