I'm struggling with trying to find an elegant way of displaying the column headers for a table view in a vertical fashion (rotated 90 deg counter clockwise from traditional).

Using the plethora of drawing functions in Cocoa or Quartz it's rather easy to draw paths, and fill them using a gradient. I can't seem to find an acceptable way however, to 'stroke'-draw a path with a line width of a few pixels and fill this stroke using a gradient. How is this done? Edit: Apparently the question wasn't clear enough. T...

At my day job I've been spoiled with Mockito's never() verification, which can confirm that a mock method is never called. Is there some way to accomplish the same thing using Objective-C and OCMock?

I have a Cocoa app which interacts with a server and displays a GUI. If there is a fatal error, I display an alert and exit.
