How can we bounce the dock icon of our application?

A:
You can use the requestUserAttention: from NSApplication. The NSRequestUserAttentionType allows you to specify whether the Dock icon will bounce once or until the application is activated.

[NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES];
int attentionrequest = [NSApp requestUserAttention:NSCriticalRequest];
and also this
[NSApp requestUserAttention:NSCriticalRequest];

This works only if the application IS NOT activated.

I think you don't have to request user attention if your application is active as the user is, well, using your application.Maybe you should consider using the Growl framework to display visual notifications.
