Is there a way for the MainMenu.xib window to open besides double clicking the MainMenu.xib file? I’ve read other tutorials, but they have told me to double click this file, and a new window should open, and yet nothing happens when I do so. Please help!!!

Thanks for the article.

LSSharedFileListItemResolve()’s outURL parameter, according to the function documentation, does need to be released. I’m not sure if the toll-free bridge to NSURL takes care of this for you. If not, the code above is leaking inside the loop, leading to multiple leaks. From the docs:

* outURL:
* CFURL of original item. Can be NULL. Returned valus has to be
* released with CFRelease().
