I have an NSArrayController subclass and an NSPopUpButton subclass. I am trying to bind the NSPopUpButton's selected object to the selection of my array controller. I have to do this manually for reasons I won't get into here. But when I do this (self is myPopUpButton) [self bind:@"selectedObject" toObject:ArrayController withKeyPath:@"selection" options:nil]; I get the error that my array controller is not KVC for the key path selection. "selection" is definitely a controller key option in Interface Builder, is it possible that this doesn't work programmatically? Has anyone else run into this problem??? I want to bind to the selected object, not the index... so it seems my only option here is selectedObjects, which I will have to pass an array of one object to.
I'm no expert in this area, but have dabbled with some code related to this, hence I offer the following subject to proviso...
I believe the only KVObservable properties of NSArrayController that you can use in this way are: -selectedObjects, -selectionIndex, and - sectionIndexes.
My suggestion, as you have subclassed NSArrayController, would be to add an additional KVO compliant property that returns the underlying (first) selected object (not the proxy object). Implement a - selectedObject property in your sub class and use it as the keyPath in the bind statement.
- (id) selectedObject { return [[self selectedObjects] objectAtIndex:0]; } HTH. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
