macOS Few Advanced Cocoa Questions

Hm, now I'm getting a "parse error before IPController" with the line:

IBOutlet IPController *myController;

I'm also using

#import "IPController.h"

at the top, any clues?

Use

@class IPController;

instead, and use

#import "IPController.h"

in MyDocument.m

Ah hah, thanks, I've never used the @class thing before. Does it just tell MyDocument that the IPController is actually a class?

Its a flag for the compiler to accept the fact that there is a class of object called IPController and not to ask to many questions about it for now.

Think forward definition. But in this case its mostly to shrink header files.
