Getting modified object in observeValueForKeyPath:ofObject:change:context: for non-simple key paths

Hi all,

I'd like to get notifications when a particular property of any object in a to-many relationship changes. Right now, I do that by observing the key path "arrangedObjects.serviceURL" on an NSArrayController. This does indeed notify me when any of the serviceURL properties change. However, I can't seem to figure out how to get the specific object in the array whose property was changed from the arguments passed in observeValueForKeyPath:...

I did manage to get the object by going directly to the NSArrayController and asking it for its selection, but it seems a bit hackish to do so (i.e., does Cocoa guaranteed that the selection will always be set correctly when observeValueForKeyPath:... is called?)

Is there a proper work-around pattern for this?

Another related question, what if I'm binding to an object that doesn't have a concept of selection? For example, if I wanted to bind to NSManagedContext's -registeredObjects (I actually haven't tried this yet, but will in a moment).

Thanks,

Mike
