Instance Methods

initWithDescriptor:

- (id)initWithDescriptor:(NSString *)inDescriptor

Initialize the ImageViewManager as above but with no progress view

initWithDescriptor:progress:

- (id)initWithDescriptor:(NSString *)inDescriptor progress:(NSProgressIndicator *)inProgress

Initialize the ImageViewManager. It initializes as in [LoadBroker initWithDescriptor:consumer:success:cancelled:error:] and then sets up a URLManager to actually do the loading.

isDone

- (BOOL)isDone

Returns true if done loading; that is, no loaders remain.

loadURL:options:imageView:

- (void)loadURL:(NSString *)inURL options:(NSDictionary *)inOptions imageView:(NSImageView *)inImageView

Begin loading a page in the background. inParsingDict describes what to load and how to interpret it. inUserInputs is a dictionary of "dynamic" inputs to be added to the request. inOptions are passed to the URLLoader. inParam is any object that is passed back to the consumer when the load finishes so the consumer can recognize what finished loading; it might be a string, a dictionary, for example.
