Getting the FirstResponder


  • Subject: Getting the FirstResponder
  • From: Phillip Hutchings <email@hidden>

I have a multi-document application with two NSTableViews. One table is in the document and contains a list of actions, the other in a panel that comes from the application's Nib, and contains a list of potential actions.

I want to be able to click a button on the panel and update the selected rows in the main table to the action selected in the panel. The easiest way I can see is send a message to the FirstResponder to get the WindowController subclass of the front window, which would then get the numbers of the selected rows and pass them down to the document to update.

Is this the best way? If so, how do I get the frontmost WindowController. I can get the frontmost document, but that doesn't help much as each document may have several view in the future, which may not have the table in. If not, how should I do it?
