Detailed Description

The GDDocument is the controller for a document-based cocoa application, this is the equivalent of GDApplicationController (but for document architecture).

This class is also the NSWindowDelegate

See also:

GDApplicationController For the non-document based cocoa application controller.

You should look at the example in gdkit/examples/CocoaApp_Document/

Member Function Documentation

- (void) initDocument

A hook you should use to initialize your document's "gd" properties, and call [self lazyInitWithModel:mainMenu:modals:operations:windows:drawers:views:sounds:].

You should call [super lazyInitWithModel(...)] as the last call.

This method calls the other initializers:

 [self initModel];
 [self initControllers];
 [self initWindows];
 [self initViews];
 [self startDocument];

- (void) initModel

A hook to initialize a GDModel.

This is a good place to initialize A GDApplicationInfo instance and save it on the model.

- (void) initViews

A hook to initialize any views - this is specifically for initializing views that don't have "gd" references from nib creation time.

IE: calling lazyInitWithGD:

Designated lazy initializer to provide values for all needed properties.

nil's are ok.

All parameters are sent [obj performSelector:@selector(lazyInitWithGD:) withObject:self]

All parameters are retained, so please send in autoreleased instances.

If you send in any objects that are already properties (from IBOutlets) they are not retained, but they are sent the designated lazy initializer.

Parameters:

	_model	A GDModel or subclassed instance.
	_modals	A GDModalController or subclassed instance.
	_operations	A GDOperationsController or subclassed instance.
	_windows	A GDWindowController or subclassed instance.
	_drawers	A GDDrawerController or subclassed instance.
	_views	A GDViewController or subclassed instance.
	_sounds	A GDSoundController or subclassed instance.
	_contexts	A GDContextMenuController or subclassed instance.

- (void) windowDidBecomeMain:

(NSNotification *)

notification

When a window becomes main.

This triggers a [mainMenu invalidate] call.

Member Data Documentation

- (BOOL) documentHasBeenActive [protected]

This is used to stop mainMenu invalidation happening on first nib load.
