I've created a static library in Xcode, which I am able to successfully use in other projects. However, with resources like plists, I find I must include any plists referenced in my library in the main project where the project is used. In my static library project, I have my plist included in the "Copy Bundle Resources" phase of the ta...
It was suggested that I use this line of code to call an image from my resources folder/project bundle. I also see it being used exactly like this on many different website tutorials. NSBundle *mb=[NSBundle mainBundle]; NSString *fp=[mb pathForResource:@"topimage" ofType:@"PNG"]; NSImage *image=[NSImage initWithContentsOfFile:fp]; ...
I've built a static library that makes heavy use of the Core Data framework. I can successfully use the library in my external project, but ONLY if I include the .xcdatamodel file in the main project. That is less than ideal, since the point of the library was to hide implementation details to the maximum possible. In a separate questio...

Some code I am unit testing needs to load a resource file. It contains the following line: NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"foo" ofType:@"txt"]; In the app it runs just fine, but when run by the unit testing framework pathForResource: returns nil, meaning it could not locate foo.txt. I've made sure that foo.t...

Basically the problem is exactly what the title says. My app works smoothly on the simulator, with no crashes whatsoever. In fact, the previous version is on the app store. I made minor changes here and there and suddenly it started to crash in a very odd place. I use [NSBundle mainBundle] resourcepath] in various places in the code to...

A quick glance in the pref panes' bundles reveals no obvious category info. Second, how should I organize my bundles into categories? Right now,...
I am currently working through the famous "Cocoa Programming for OSX" by Aaron Hillegaas. In Chapter 12 he wants me to create an about window using [BOOL] successful = [NSBundle loadNibNamed:@"About" owner:self]; which, by itself, works perfectly well. However, I am using the garbage collector and since I do not retain a pointer to t...

Instruments is able to properly symbolize my app's main bundle (as well as frameworks and libraries) in the stack trace of the extended detail view. However, symbols aren't resolved for plugins loaded during execution. Setting the build directory where the dSym files for the main and plugin bundles are located (as well as the app itself...

When another application has focus and I use the menulet to trigger a window to be opened, it appears behind the foreground application (but above anything else that is present on the screen). Basically... -(IBAction)aboutWindow:(id)sender { [NSBundle loadNi...
