Greetings,
Another newbie question about the MonoMac bindings.
I've found that a couple of methods throw an "Argument cannot be null" error even though the Apple docs state that they should be able to take nil as an argument. I take it that it is a limitation of the current MonoMac bindings. Given that, what's the best way to deal with this?
For some cases, the ugly solution of allocating a temporary object (e.g. :myWindow.OrderOut(new NSObject())") seems to work. But for other methods, a nil parameter has a special significance in the API... what's the best practice for passing nil in those cases?
Thanks,
