I have configured a columnn containing NSPopUpButtons inside and
NSTable. I created a datasource and associated it my my table view. In
my DataSource I have added the following code:

- (id)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView
objectValueForTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn
row:(int)rowIndex
{
NSMutableArray * titles = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:3];
[titles addObject:@"Mr"];
[titles addObject:@"Ms"];
[titles addObject:@"Mrs"];
[titles addObject:[[NSNumber numberWithInt:rowIndex]stringValue]];
NSLog([aTableColumn identifier]);

if ([[aTableColumn identifier] isEqualToString:@"Labels"])
{
return titles;
}
return titles;
}


For the default type of cell returning a String is fine, but how can I
set individual values for each row using a NSPopUpButtonCell. Returning
a NSString array does not work. Is it possible to use this mechanism at
all. I understand that the instance of the cell class is shared for all
cells in the same column and that the value is provided from the
datasource, but what value do I need to return for a NSPopUpButtonCell.

If this is not the right way of doing it, do i need to subclass
NSTableColumn and implement the dataCellForRow method ?This seems quite
a bit of effort for just setting the values ?

Thanks
Alex
