What extra steps is necessary to run AsObjC apps outside of XCode 3.2?

Hello.

I have a window and menu less faceless litte app, that hooks onto the curren’t applications SystemStatusBar

set myBar to current application's class "NSStatusBar"'s systemStatusBar()

This works great when the application is run from within XCode 3.2, but It doesn’t when the app is launched outside of XCode.

I wonder what extra steps I need to take to make this work. Or to be informed that I can’t.

The whole project can be found here.

Thanks.

Maybe this helps

Hello.

Thank you a lot. That project works, so it should be possible for me as well. But then again, why should I make my project work outside XCode, when jnc’s does? -And it has submenus too.! :slight_smile:

I don’t know any of the projects.
I recommend to compare them or to build your project based on jonn’s

I think I’ll let mine stay as it is.

John has the window, and the menu i the nib, and uses both. I have none. And I can’t even reproduce the steps I made in the first place to make it work. :slight_smile:

The menu app I have made, thanks to DJ Bazzie Wazzie, is tailored to be used from within XCode, and then there isn’t much of an obstacle to open the project and launch it from there.

Thanks for showing me that project Stefan, it will sure come in handy!

Thanks again!

Hi McUsr,

I think I might have found the solution. Your projects build architecture is set to 32/64-bit. When I set it to just 64-bit it works stand alone app.
