Getting started with Cocoa Bindings in My Project?

Hello list, I've got a Mac app that has a table with a data source. Every few minutes, the data source updates itself, and when that happens, I call myTableView.reloadData(). This is a prime candidate for Cocoa bindings, so I thought I'd learn how that mechanism works, and make my code much pret

Re: "Computed segue" in iOS?

Ideally, you use different cells for the different data elements, and wire them up to the appropriate segue, letting the system take care of most of it for you. If you need something more complex, it’s time to trigger the segues programatically. You can wire up multiple segues from your source V

NSXMLDocument - XSLT version

It seems that NSXMLDocument only supports XSLT v 1.0. In particular I am interested in the date format support that is part of XSLT 2. I have found extension code such as this: http://exslt.org/date/functions/format-date/ But it seems rather old school. Is there a better approach out there? Sam

Getting a Popover's frame

Hello, I have a UIPopoverPresentationController and I would like to get the popover’s frame in either window coordinates or the presenting controller’s view’s coordinates. A little background: The popover contains a custom color picker, and after it opens, several passthrough views representi

Re: Swift generics, circular type declarations, and segfaults, oh my!

I am wondering if the compiler feature which might allow this (and several other things) would be to allow implementors of a protocol to adhere to it with a more restrictive type (either a subclass or an implementer/inheritor of a returned protocol). For example: protocol Thing { var n

Thanks for the help, both you and Charles. I want to try to summarize the procedure as I now understand it, to make sure I have it all straight. No sense going and doing a bunch of work if I'm still missing something vital or don't have it right. My first step is to make a KVO-compliant backing

recent applications list question

Hi, I’m setting LSUIElement to 1 and using [NSApp setActivationPolicy:NSApplicationActivationPolicyRegular] to transform to visible depending upon user preferences. However, this seems to have the effect of not having my app show up in the Recent Applications list. Does anyone know if there
