Hello everybody,
I have a question relating NSImage and NSBitmapImageRep. I have a stream of
data that I want to display in a view and it's not in any standard image
format. So I created an NSBitmapImageRep, then I filled the bitmapdata with the
data and drew it in the view with drawInRect:

Initialize an empty NSImage using -initWithSize:, which according to
its description does not add any image representations to the image
object. Then add your NSImageRep to it with
You'd add an NSBitmapImageRep to an NSImage with -[NSImage
addRepresentation:].
However, an NSImage is not going to be any easier to draw rotated than an
NSBitmapImageRep. You can draw rotated by changing the coordinate system
right before you draw your image, drawing, and putting it back.

Hi,
I am using NSSavePanel in my application. I am using runModal on this to show
the save panel. The default location it shows to save the file is Desktop
which I want to change to Document. I tried runModalForDirectory as well
however it uses the given file path as save location always.
I open a file, then immediately close it. I get this error message saying that
one of the objects has been invalidated, but I have no idea what is
invalidating the object.
How do I debug this?
The NSManagedObject with ID:0x11a415320 x-coredata://whatever has been
invalidated.
