Re: Loading xibs

[Fred Kiefer]

As I expected, I cannot compile your code as it uses properties and my 
gcc 4.5.1 doesn't support them.

What I could detect is that one of your XIB files was produced by a 
rather new version of XCode and has the XIB version 8.00. This version 
seems to have added the two element types "array" and "dictionary" as 
short cuts for these two classes. I added support of these into our 
GSXibLoader. Not sure whether that was your problem and if this is 
solved now. But if the loading of NIB files already fails, then I expect 
that your problem is on a different level.

As you didn't share any information about that, I will have to wait for 
a version of gcc that supports properties and try again at that time.
