leopard problem with: [[NSColorPanel sharedColorPanel] setColor:
-
when i run my app on leopard, i get the following message on the
console window:
Custom ColorPicker class with name .com.freeverselib could
not be loaded.
i've traced it to the following line of code (in my override of
windowDidBecomeKey)
[[NSColorPanel sharedColorPanel] setColor: [self tableColor]];
and when printing [self tableColor] in the debugger, i get:
NSCalibratedWhiteColorSpace 0 1
this does not show up if i run my app on tiger.
can anyone tell me what is going on here? and more importantly, what
i can do to stop tis message from showing up?
thanx,
ken -

It means that you've got a custom color picker installed that doesn't
properly implement all the required methods that a custom color picker
is suppose to.
Look in you ~/Library/ColorPickers folder (and /Library/ColorPickers)
and see what's there...

glenn,
thanx for the response. thats what i thought it meant. however, prior
to posting i had already checked those places and
/System/Library/colorPickers. the only place there are any is in
/System/Library/ColorPickers and the only ones installed there are:
NSColorPickerWheel.colorPicker
NSColorPickerCrayon.colorPicker
NSColorPickerPageableNameList.colorPicker
NSColorPickerSliders.colorPicker
NSColorPickerUser.colorPicker
when i examined the packages for each of these, none of them had an
info.plist that refered to .com.freeverselib. in fact, all of them
appear to be vanilla apple pickers. hence my confusion and posting.
any other ideas? or anyplace else to look?
thanx,
ken

You have a file in ~/Library/ColorPickers or /Library/ColorPickers with
the name ".com.freeverselib".
It probably won't show up in the Finder due to the dot at the front of
its name.
It's nothing you did wrong, not your bug. Although I'd be a little
concerned that somebody (Freeverse?) is trying to do something sneaky in
all apps, which is bad, except that it doesn't appear to be working in
Leopard anyway.
I had this happening in my app yesterday, but the filename was
".DS_Store". I filed a bug, since it really shouldn't litter the Console
with errors like that.

To make Finder show all files, including those that are hidden, in
Terminal type...
>> defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
>> killall Finder
Under Tiger, this makes all the icons, both in Finder windows and on the
desktop, appear lighter than normal, although I'm informed this has been
fixed in Leopard.

thanx. i did in fact have such a file in ~/Library/ColorPickers whose
name was .com.freeverselib... i deleted this with the terminal and
the message is gone.
thanx again,
ken
