414 | Invoked from the applicationWillUpdate notification observer. See the | |
415 | NSApplication documentation for the official statement on when this | |
416 | will be called. Since it can be hard to understand for a Cocoa newbie | |
417 | I'll try to explain it here as it relates to wxCocoa. | |
418 | ||
419 | Basically, we get called from within nextEventMatchingMask if and only | |
420 | if any user code told the application to send the update notification | |
421 | (sort of like a request for idle events). However, unlike wx idle events, | |
422 | this notification is sent quite often, nearly every time through the loop | |
423 | because nearly every control tells the application to send it. | |
424 | ||
425 | Because wx idle events are only supposed to be sent when the event loop | |
426 | is about to block we instead schedule a function to be called just | |
427 | before the run loop waits and send the idle events from there. | |
428 | ||
429 | It also has the desirable effect of only sending the wx idle events when | |
430 | the event loop is actualy going to block. If the event loop is being | |
431 | pumped manualy (e.g. like a PeekMessage) then the kCFRunLoopBeforeWaiting | |
432 | observer never fires. Our Yield() method depends on this because sending | |
433 | idle events from within Yield would be bad. | |
434 | ||
435 | Normally you might think that we could just set the observer up once and | |
436 | leave it attached. However, this is problematic because our run loop | |
437 | observer calls user code (the idle handlers) which can actually display | |
438 | modal dialogs. Displaying a modal dialog causes reentry of the event | |
439 | loop, usually in a different run loop mode than the main loop (e.g. in | |
440 | modal-dialog mode instead of default mode). Because we only register the | |
441 | observer with the run loop mode at the time of this call, it won't be | |
442 | called from a modal loop. | |
443 | ||
444 | We want it to be called and thus we need a new observer. | |

547 | /* A note about Cocoa's event loops vs. run loops: | |
548 | ||
549 | It's important to understand that Cocoa has a two-level event loop. The | |
550 | outer level is run by NSApplication and can only ever happen on the main | |
551 | thread. The nextEventMatchingMask:untilDate:inMode:dequeue: method returns | |
552 | the next event which is then given to sendEvent: to send it. These | |
553 | methods are defined in NSApplication and are thus part of AppKit. | |
554 | ||
555 | Events (NSEvent) are only sent due to actual user actions like clicking | |
556 | the mouse or moving the mouse or pressing a key and so on. There are no | |
557 | paint events; there are no timer events; there are no socket events; there | |
558 | are no idle events. | |
559 | ||
560 | All of those types of "events" have nothing to do with the GUI at all. | |
561 | That is why Cocoa's AppKit doesn't implement them. Instead, they are | |
562 | implemented in Foundation's NSRunLoop which on OS X uses CFRunLoop | |
563 | to do the actual work. | |
564 | ||
565 | How NSApplication uses NSRunLoop is rather interesting. Basically, it | |
566 | interacts with NSRunLoop only from within the nextEventMatchingMask | |
567 | method. It passes its inMode: argument almost directly to NSRunLoop | |
568 | and thus CFRunLoop. The run loop then runs (e.g. loops) until it | |
569 | is told to exit. The run loop calls the callout functions directly. | |
570 | From within those callout functions the run loop is considered to | |
571 | be running. Presumably, the AppKit installs a run loop source to | |
572 | receive messages from the window server over the mach port (like a | |
573 | socket). For some messages (e.g. need to paint) the AppKit will | |
574 | call application code like drawRect: without exiting the run loop. | |
575 | For other messages (ones that can be encapsulated in an NSEvent) | |
576 | the AppKit tells the run loop to exit which returns control to | |
577 | the nextEventMatchingMask method which then returns the NSEvent | |
578 | object. It's important to note that once the runloop has exited | |
579 | it is no longer considered running and thus if you ask it which | |
580 | mode it is running in it will return nil. | |
581 | ||
582 | When manually pumping the event loop care should be taken to | |
583 | tell it to run in the correct mode. For instance, if you are | |
584 | using it to run a modal dialog then you want to run it in | |
585 | the modal panel run loop mode. AppKit presumably has sources | |
586 | or timers or observers that specifically don't listen on this | |
587 | mode. Another interesting mode is the connection reply mode. | |
588 | This allows Cocoa to wait for a response from a distributed | |
589 | objects message without firing off user code that may result | |
590 | in a DO call being made thus recursing. So basically, the | |
591 | mode is a way for Cocoa to attempt to avoid run loop recursion | |
592 | but to allow it under certain circumstances. | |
