This doesn't work because the selected object(s) need to be the actual
objects managed by the controller.
This code works (but seems incredibly complicated and inefficient):
NSArray *arrangedObjects = [ dictController arrangedObjects ];
id theThing = nil;
for( id something in arrangedObjects )
{
NSString *key = [ something key ];
if ( [ key isEqualToString: defKey ] )
{
theThing = something;
break;
};
};
if ( theThing == nil ) // error
{
NSLog(@"%s Error not found",__FUNCTION__);
}
else
{
[ dictController setSelectedObjects: [ NSArray arrayWithObject:
theThing ] ];
};
This, or something similar, is probably your best bet. Also, chances
are any other apparently shorter solution would really just do the
same thing.
