Hi, I've pretty much finished work on a white noise feature for one of my applications using NSSound to play a loop of 10 second AAC-encoded pre-recorded white noise. [sound setLoops: YES] should be all that's required, right? It works like a charm but I've noticed that there is an audible pause between the sound file finishing and ...
I have a given line of code, after which none of my own code lines should get executed (not in the same "event loop"). How do I configure the Xcode debugger to catch instances in which some of my own code indeed does get executed after this given line of code? If it's not possible to filter by the "event loop", can I filter it down to,...

Right now I'm running this: NSTask *task; task = [[NSTask alloc] init]; [task setLaunchPath: @"/usr/bin/top"]; NSArray *arguments; arguments = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"-stats", @"pid,cpu", nil]; [task setArguments: arguments]; NSPipe *pipe; pipe = [NSPipe ...
EDIT 1 This code is currently printing to the console. What I would like to do is get the data in a string (and stop the data going to the console) so I can parse it for specific information. I hope my question is clear. Please ask for clarification if needed :) EDIT 2 Another alternative could be to print it to a file and then I co...
I tried to overwrite the simple NSView method: - (NSMenu *)menuForEvent:(NSEvent *)event { NSMenu* result = [super menuForEvent: event]; NSMenuItem* mi = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle: @"Foobar" action: @selector(foobar) keyEquivalent: @""]; [result addItem: mi]; return result; } but it does not work. It is never c...
I am using a NSSearchField to run a query over the internet and display the results in a table view. Whilst the query is running I would like to display a progress indicator inside an NSSearchField? I think I have seen this done in another application before. Is there an open source component that I could use to accomplish this? How wo...

Then i make 3 rectangles (imageRect, secRect and IntersectRect), the imageRect is the rect which show an image, secRect is rect which just act to darken whole imageRect, and the intersectRect is a rect which like an observe rect, wha...
I'd like to provide a few pixels of padding around an NSTextView inside of an NSScrollView. I've reviewed this post and using setTextContainerInset does the trick for the left, right, and bottom margins. But as soon as the text scrolls the top buffer is lost. Same thing with overriding textContainerOrigin. Another answer in that post sta...

Suppose (for the sake of argument) that I have a view class which contains an NSDictionary. I want a whole bunch of properties, all of which access the members of that dictionary. For example, I want @property NSString* title and @property NSString* author. For each one of these properties, the implementation is the same: for the gette...
It seems that the NSNumberFormatter can't parse Euro (and probably other) currency strings into a numerical type. Can someone please prove me wrong. I'm attempting to use the following to get a numeric amount from a currency string: NSNumberFormatter *currencyFormatter = [[[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init] autorelease]; [currencyFormatte...
Hi, I made an application that is written in Cocoa and I happened to see how many threads it was using in Activity Monitor. It said 5. I did not use NSThread or any type of thread capability it registered as 5. Is this automatic? ...
I am trying to use an http request to google maps to obtain the driving distance between two locations using JSON. However, it seems these are treated different in a browser than in the (iphone) app. I create an NSString which holds the URL, using coordinates and %20 (a space). I NSLog() the URL to make sure, and it seems ok (ie it work...
I load the webview and set allowsScrolling to NO, but webview still shows scroll bars... Banging your head on your computer hurts a lot more now that MacBooks have sharp metal edges.
