Well, what actually happens is that -selectedObjects almost always

- (void)awakeFromNib {
[objController setContent:@"This is a nice string"];
NSArray *selectedObjects = [objController selectedObjects];
id selectedObject = (selectedObjects && [selectedObjects count])?
[selectedObjects objectAtIndex:0] : nil;
NSLog(@"The selectedObjects were: %@,\n the selectedObject was:
%@", selectedObjects, selectedObject);
[objController setContent:@"Another string"];
selectedObjects = [objController selectedObjects];
selectedObject = (selectedObjects && [selectedObjects count])?
[selectedObjects objectAtIndex:0] : nil;
NSLog(@"The selectedObjects were: %@,\n the selectedObject was:
%@", selectedObjects, selectedObject);
}
What happens when this is run is that the first time -setContent: is
used, the -selectedObjects method returns the object (the string).
The second time however, has -selectedObjects return NO object (i.e.
the empty array).
IIRC, NSObjectController, as a super class has some behavior that
doesn't make sense to an NSObjectControlelr proper. Because of this it
is possible that the selection change has been deferred to the run
loop. You can manually run the run loop to see if this is the case.
It seems to me that there is no need for you to use -selectedObjects
when there will always be a 1:1 relationship between the controller
content and the selected object.
