DESCRIPTION: |
This example shows how to use pasteboard and services APIs for Mac OS X v10.6 and later. |
The example is a document-based application which serves as a "typing assistant". Each document contains a collection of text snippets which you can insert in turn into another application using a service. When creating a document, you can import text snippets also using a service. |
The application uses the pasteboard to support copy and paste and drag and drop. Drag and drop is illustrated using a subclass of NSArrayController in conjunction with Cocoa bindings. |
=========================================================================== |
BUILD REQUIREMENTS: |
Xcode 3.2 or later, Mac OS X v10.6 or later. |
=========================================================================== |
RUNTIME REQUIREMENTS: |
Mac OS X v10.6 or later. |
=========================================================================== |
PACKAGING LIST: |
MyDocument.{h,m} |
Document object to manage a collection of text snippets; the snippets may be displayed in one or two windows: |
* A window managed by a DisplayController window controller which is solely for display purposes; |
* Optionally, a window managed by an EditController window controller, which is used for editing the snippets. |
DisplayController.{h,m} |
A window controller to display the titles of the text snippets. |
EditController.{h,m} |
A window controller to manage editing the text snippets. |
AppDelegate.{h,m} |
Application delegate class to act as the Services provider. Services requests are routed to the current main document. The delegate also manages the application's preferences. |
DMKArrayController.{h,m} |
An array controller subclass to manage a collection of text snippets, including support for drag and drop. |
Step.{h,m} |
A model object to represent a text snippet. |
The class conforms to the NSCoding, NSPasteboardReading, and NSPasteboardWriting protocols so that instances can be used with archives and written to and read from a pasteboard. |
