How about just a C array? If NBR_OF_ROWS is a constant, BOOL checks[NBR_OF_ROWS];
otherwise malloc it. Although I'd be more likely to have an array of data objects with a BOOL and whatever goes in the text field, just to keep the two values together and allow for reordering, variable sized arrays, etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gilles Celli" <gilles.ce...@ecgs.lu> To: cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2011 7:58:34 AM Subject: Is there an easier way of changing NSButtonCell state in an NSOutlineView Hello, I've setup an NSOutlineView with 2 colums: the first one named "buttonColumns" with NSButtonCell (Switch ON / OFF) and the second one with TextFieldCell… While the state change works for NSButtonCell in the buttonColum I had to create an NSArray *checks to set it ON or OFF. Is there an easier way to change the state of an NSButtonCell in an NSOutlineView without using an NSArray ? The code I'm using seems a little bit overkill for me...there must be a simpler solution... Here's what I've done so far and it works: // init code checks = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; for ( int i=0; i < NBR_OF_ROWS; i++ ) [checks addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:0]]; // NSOutlineView datasource methods - (id)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)outlineView objectValueForTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)tableColumn byItem:(id)item { id theValue; NSInteger selectedRowIndex = [outlineView selectedRow]; if ( [[tableColumn identifier] isEqualToString:@"buttonColumn"] ) { theValue = [checks objectAtIndex:selectedRowIndex]; } return theValue; } - (void)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)outlineView setObjectValue:(id)object forTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)tableColumn byItem:(id)item { NSInteger selectedRowIndex = [outlineView selectedRow]; if ( [[tableColumn identifier] isEqualToString:@"buttonColumn" ]) { [checks replaceObjectAtIndex:selectedRowIndex withObject:object]; } } Does someone have any clue ? Any help is greatly appreciated ?
