AFAIK, the object above is KVO complaint. I have an interface with two text fields, one bound to foo and the other bound to bar. When I change the value in the text field bound to foo the value in the text field bound to bar doesn't change.


The accessor methods are KVO compliant, but you disrupt the mechanism by overriding didChangeValueForKey: (specifically, you don't invoke the superclass's implementation -- although you shouldn't be doing this anyway: is there anywhere in the documentation that suggests that overriding the KVO notification methods is a common pattern?). It's not clear why you would do this rather than simply:


- (void)setFoo:(float)value {
    foo = value;
    [self setBar:value * 2];
}
