problem with currentDocument and mainWIndow

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hello,

my goal is to get the current document for a running application. This 
application is, however, not currently order front, but it is running 
and has a single, new, open document (just the default when you start it 
up).

The specific case is the Vespucci browser. The goal is to respond to a 
call that happens when another application invokes Vespucci to open an 
URL, to respond I want to check the current document.

What happens is that the NSDocumentController currentDocument (line 
1005) checks for the main window and asks that one for the document. 
What happens though that the main window is null:



(gdb) s
-[NSApplication mainWindow] (self=0x8186b88, _cmd=0xb7f3af18)
   at NSApplication.m:2440
2440      return _main_window;
(gdb) p _main_window
$4 = (class NSWindow *) 0x0

I guess because it is not key-order-front. I think this is wrong, but I 
am not sure. Yet even if there is no wain window, it has sense to have a 
current document, doesn't it?

It seems to me however, but I have other problems there thus my 
debugging went poorly, that Mac is consistent as far as nor providing a 
current document, I wonder how I can solve my need though.
