Ok...So a bit more detail: I am setting the content of the NSObjectController (which is an IBOutlet) to a managed object that I've fetched in the WindowControllerDidLoadNib method of my application.
I have one NSTextField in my NIB. If I don't bind a value from the ObjectController to the TextField, the app opens fine and no calls are made during open to the two functions mentioned earlier (willChangeValueForKey: and didChangeValueForKey:). As soon as I bind the text field value to a key path (self.title or just title) in the ObjectController, then the below methods are called for each and every key in my ManagedObject. The real question is this: I'd like to set a "lastUpdated" key with the current time when a change is made to the object. Obviously, opening the file doesn't constitute a change being made so I can't have the currentTime being set upon file open without problems. Thanks- Jeff On Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 3:56 AM, I.
