Summary:  NSDocument not including extention at time of delegate call in save

Original Submission:  Using NSDocument - 
(void)saveDocumentWithDelegate:(id)delegate 
didSaveSelector:(SEL)didSaveSelector contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo and asking 
for the file name does not yet include the extension. This means the app gets 
the wrong name (= right name - extension) at that point. Extension is provided 
in cocoa. I would argue that should be the same in GNUstep so the app has the 
right, full name at time of save.

Sorry, I am getting even more confused. In a private mail you wrote:

This seems totally unrelated to the above problem of the 
saveDocumentWithDelegate... method. (As unrelated as the PS you added, which 
deals with the open panel). Yes all of this may be wrong behaviour from 
GNUstep, but we need to sort them out first, than we are able to solve them.
Now the problem you describe in the mail seems to come from the way we 
implement [NSWindowController synchronizeWindowTitleWithDocumentName] and this 
looks very close to the Cocoa specification for the method. Perhaps Apple has 
decided to use a different algorithm now. If you could provide detail for this, 
we could rethink our implementation.
The other problem that you reported in the PS, should be reported separatly. 
And please, could you provide example code plus instruction to reporduce the 
problem in the future. This would save me the time of looking for the wrong 
problem.

Did I understand this problem correctly: Inside of the didDaveSelector method 
of the delegate you call (-fileName) on the NSDocument you get handed in and 
the result is a filename without extension for GNUstep, whereas for Cocoa you 
get a filename with extension?
I did not find any hint in this direction in our code, but there is aknow 
difference to MacOSX 10.3. There you may set multiple allowed file types. 
Perhaps your problem comes from this or something similar.

P.S. This is when calling NSOpenPanel filenames/filename method. It should 
return full paths (with extensions).
