Irrational Exuberance

You are writing a comment about An Epic Introduction to PyObjC and Cocoa, here is a quick summary:

PyObjC is one of the most helpful projects I have ever used, but a number of individuals have been having trouble getting started with PyObjC on Leopard because the documentation is in a bit of a disarray. In particular, there didn't seem to be a comprehensive tutorial that could introduce a newcomer to all the important aspects of PyobjC, and that was completely up to date. Here is my attempt to fill that void. With a vengeance.

Hello, first of all, thank you for this, i ve been looking for soemthing like this for a while noe.

Now on to business, i ve been testing this, and the only diference between my code and yours is the name, my controller is called FController instead of MWcontroller.

when i test the search field i get this error

Resources/FController.py", line 17, in search_ search_value = self.textField.stringValue() AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stringValue'

Which i suspect is a problem in linking the xib object "textfield" with the oython controller...

What do you think it could be? So far i ve only completed the first part of this.

I tried checking wether the field was named textField but all I found was TextField ( in using the inspector window, but i might be wrong since i m only starting), then itried looking in the inspector window for a method or access method called stringValue, did not find it either, closest thing i found was in clicking mainMenu.xib(english) window, then on Window(window)>content View> Text Field and the going into the fifth tab of the inspector i found under Received Actions a : takeStringValueFrom but i m guessing this is not it.

thank you for the help in advance.
