I generally have UI that displays all (or some subset of) the properties of one of my entities. I'd like that UI to update if anything updates one of the models. But if there are a dozen properties, then that's a dozen -addObserver and -removeObserver calls, in each place where there might be UI associated with it. If I later add a new property to the entity, I have to be sure to KVO, it, too. If I remove a bit of the UI, I have to remember to remove the call (not strictly, but I like keeping my code clean). Being able to subscribe once for all changes to a single object makes these problems go away. -- Rick _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
