Date: Sun 16-Aug-1989 18:28:57 From: Unknown Subject: re: window problems, yet again Adam, You still aren't specifying the method name correctly. Objective C includes tokens in the middle of the method name (presumably for readability) to specify the arguments in a multi-argument method. YOU MUST ALSO SPECIFY THESE TOKENS, as they are translated by the preprocessor into part of the function that is ultimately called to perform the method. The method name you have given (since you are using parameters that you've declared as local variables) is translated into newContent:::::. The correct method name is newContent:style:backing:buttonMask:defer, where ALL of the tokens in the name are significant, and must be included EXACTLY as written. You must intersperse these name tokens with the parameters that you are passing to the method. That's why my previous posting has the function call written as it does. If this doesn't do it, maybe you could send me something directly? I still can't get our local system to recognize your mail address. Cheers, Dave >From: combs@sumex-aim.stanford.edu (Dave Combs)
