I am working on a basic core data app. I have a single entity with a

directly into

The problem is, I want to set the value of the file path based on a
user
selection from an NSOpenPanel. I tried setting the value of the text
field
with setStringValue,
Yea, that's trying to change the value from the wrong direction. Tell
your friends, "don't try to change a bound value by directly
manipulating the view".
but that did not end up stored by core data.
I am guessing I have to access the currently selected managed object
somehow
and then update it, but none of the core data examples I have seen do
anything like this. Can someone point me in the right direction?
There's nothing coredata specific about this. You must either have an
arrayController or a traditional NSTableView datasource object feeding
your table view. If you're using an arrayController, use the
arrayController's selection property (as opposed to selectedObjects,
that way you can handle multiple selection for free). Or you
implemented the tableView dataSource method for
tableView:selectionDidChangeToIndexes: or whatever that method is.
Make sense?
Thanks,
Andrew
