Newbie question about Database

Hello All, I am learning Cocoa and would like to develop an application that can connect to a database, such as MySQL. However, I cannot find any tutorial, nor drivers in order to connect to a MySQL database, in such a way JDBC works with Java. How can one do so? I was also wondering if

Fetching related objects in CoreData without NSManagedObject

I've searched around and I'm confused about something. I've got a data model with a many-to-one relationship. How do I: 1. Given the object on the "one" side, how do I get its related object on the "many" side? 2. Given the object on the "many" side, how do I get all of the objects on the "o

NSButtonCell in NSOutlineView

I'm still trying to get a NSButtonCell in an NSOutlineView where the button cell is in the first column, is a checkbox style AND the title of the cell is set based on the row so that it shows data rather than needing a separate column for its title. I've rewritten it from using bindings to using a

Re: Attempting to create NSTableView with Single Header

3 steps to closely approximate what you want. 1) In IB, turn off column headers for the table. 2) Add this delegate method to the delegate object for the table: - (BOOL)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView isGroupRow:(NSInteger)row { return row == 0; // the first row of the table will be treated
