Yes. It is very common that, despite NSDictionary accepting any object as a key, you must use NSString keys. > So the sorting of numeric string keys is always going to be alphabetic. Not true. See -[NSString compare:options:] with the NSNumericSearch option. > My solution was to discard NSDictionaryController and create a proxy object > containing two properties: I would instead suggest subclassing NSDictionaryController and overriding -arrangedObjects. The naive implementation would call super's implementation and return a sorted version of the result. The published interface says that -arrangedObjects returns id, but the documentation says that it returns an array, so I would feel reasonably safe treating the return value as an NSArray. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
