Re: NSObjectController needless in "Intro to Bindings"?

Hello Ken,

thanks for your respond. I already read this link and thought that the NSArrayController "Mailbox" represents this intervening NSController between the model object and the table view because the table view is not bound direct to the model or a custom controller. To reformulate my question - Why is a second intervening NSController in form of an NSObjectController useful?

Thanks again,
Jochen

Both versions run identical, so my question:
Are both approaches equivalent and the NSObjectController is not really needed or is there a reason/advantage to hook the NSObjectController between MyController and the NSArrayController ?

See this: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaBindings/Concepts/WhatAreBindings.html#/ /apple_ref/doc/uid/20002372-177085


In short, yes, it's possible to get away with binding directly to model objects without an intervening NSController. It's often better to use such a controller, though, and the link explains why.

Cheers,
Ken
