How to full screen application with Mavericks API

Question

I am currently developing an application in OS X and just trying to set the application to full screen. I did some research and found out that I need to call a function from the object sharedApplicationthat I placed in the method applicationDidFinishLaunching.

[[NSApplication sharedApplication] setPresentationOptions:NSApplicationPresentationFullScreen];

However, when I start the application, I get this message for me.

setPresentationOptions called with NSApplicationPresentationFullScreen when there is no visible fullscreen window; this call will be ignored.

I could not find a solution, can someone explain how I can resolve this statement? This is what I understood from the message, I can’t install my application in full screen mode, if my window is not in full screen mode, it does not make sense to me, because I will need to have a smaller window for me to maximize later. What's happening?

Ok, hopefully this is a helpful answer.

First, I'm going to discuss the difference in the development of the underlying application between iOS and Mac and continue to work with NSWindowController, and then try to explain why you caused unexpected behavior!
