[Pyobjc-dev] NSBundle doesn't set attributes with loadNibNamed_owner_

[Frederik De B. <fre...@pa...>]

Hi,

I wanted to add some additional options to the save panel in PyObjC. I 
discovered that I should use  setAccessoryView_ on a NSSavePanel. The 
TextEdit sources show how to do that: you load an NSBundle, and then 
set a certain box to the accessorryView of the save panel. The file's 
owner of the NIB is changed to my own subclass of NSDocument, and I 
added two additionational outlets: pageCount (an NSTextField) and 
pageCountAccessory (an NSBox).

The problem I have is that NSBundle.loadNibNamed_owner_ doesn't seem to 
set the attributes I defined on the file's owner ("self"). Therefore, 
I'm not able to access any of the outlets.

Here's the code. Python gives an error the moment I try to access 
self.pageCount ("object has no attribute pageCount")

     def saveMultipleDocumentsAsPDF_(self):
		savePanel = NSSavePanel.savePanel()
		if not NSBundle.loadNibNamed_owner_("PageCounterAccessory", self):
			NSLog("Error -- could not load PageCounterAccessory.")
		self.pageCount.setIntValue_(1)
		savePanel.setAccessoryView_(self.pageCountAccessory)

Any help on how this problem might be solved is appreciated.
