Hello,
I'm trying to create a custom NSPredicateEditorRowTemplate subclass
that has a single view, an NSPopUpButton with a single item and am
having some trouble. Basically what I'm trying to do is create a
predicate like the one in Apple Mail when creating a rule for
handling e-mail in which you can select "Any Message".
....
When I call [predicateEditor addRow:self] an exception is thrown and
my application crashes:
2008-05-19 14:48:51.614 PredicateDebugger[15062:10b] *** Terminating
app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException',
reason: 'In <NSPredicateEditor: 0x1023aa0>, different number of
items (1) than predicate template views (0) for template

NSBooleanAttributeType>'
Hi Steven,
You're probably receiving this (admittedly opaque) error because
you're not implementing the NSCopying protocol. Since a predicate
editor can have multiple, identical rows, your templates are copied
before their views are added to the predicate editor. If you subclass
NSPredicateEditorRowTemplate and add a view to it, you must ensure
that each copy has a new instance of the view.
However, there's an easier way to create a one-popup template:
- Select the row template in IB
- In the inspector, configure the row template to have whichever left
expression type you want to have appear in your predicate (key paths
or constant values).
- Double click on the popup in the template, and give it whatever
title you want.
- Create a subclass of NSPredicateEditorRowTemplate, and override
templateViews to only return the first view:
- (NSArray *)templateViews {
return [NSArray arrayWithObject:[[super templateViews]
objectAtIndex:0]];
}
- In IB again, change the row template's class to your subclass.
Hope that's clear. Let me know if you have any questions.
-Peter
