OK, now I *think* I've got a bit idea. What I've been trying to do
is get an ivar from object1 into object2 *directly* without using
the controller as a "middleman"
Is it true that I have to set up properties (using Objc 2) to get
and set the ivars *via* the controller? I just did that and got it
to work.
Can i only communicate between objects via the controller who (as
obviously named) it controls the flow of data?
The only reason I ask this is because after reading Object-Oriented
Programming with Objective-C - The Object Model - Figure 3-2 "The
object network" shows each object sending messages to each other. Is
that picture very abstracted? Because if it is, that figure has
messed with my brain.
I think this has been explained.
It is perfectly acceptable for model objects to message one another.
You just need to have a reference to the object you are trying to
message. i.e.:
Company <-->> Employees
Your Company object would have an array of Employees. The Employee
objects would each have a reference to their Company.
From Company: [[[self employees] objectAtIndex:n] doThatThing];
From Employee: [[self company] doThatOtherThing];

Sorry, but I disagree. You've still got some concepts missing. :-)
