LoadNibFileExternalNameTableWithZone Method (fileName, context, zone)

Available in Mac OS X v10.0 and later.

Declaration Syntax

Visual Basic

Visual C++

public static bool LoadNibFileExternalNameTableWithZone(
	NSString fileName,
	NSDictionary context,
	IntPtr zone
)

Public Shared Function LoadNibFileExternalNameTableWithZone ( _
	fileName As NSString, _
	context As NSDictionary, _
	zone As IntPtr _
) As Boolean

public:
static bool LoadNibFileExternalNameTableWithZone(
	NSString^ fileName, 
	NSDictionary^ context, 
	IntPtr zone
)

Parameters

fileName (NSString): The location of the nib file specified as an absolute path in the file system.

context (NSDictionary): A name table whose keys identify objects associated with your program or the nib file. The newly unarchived objects from the nib file use this table to connect to objects in your program. For example, the nib file uses the object associated with the NSNibOwner constant as the nib file's owning object. If you associate an empty NSMutableArray object with the NSNibTopLevelObjects constant, on output, the array contains the top level objects from the nib file. For descriptions of these constants, see NSNib Class Reference.

Return Value

YES if the nib file was loaded successfully; otherwise, NO.
