Hi all,
In my first few days of cocoa having come from delphi and c on the
pc.... so apologies for what I'm sure will seem a trivial question.
My first app. is usually an nntp (news) client.. albeit a very simple
one.
I've laid out the user interface as basically 2 TableViews (to show the
newsgroups) , an OutlineView(to show the articles with threading) and
a textview for the body of the article (though I may need to rethink
that later).
So far, I have it connecting to a server, pulling down a list of groups
and displaying them in the tableview.
Now I want to display data in the second table... and looking over the
code, this is why I think I've mangled the MVC ideas...
All my work is done inside the only class I've made,
newsController.m/h I have a couple of arrays one per table... this is
where I have the needed functions:-
- (int) numberOfRowsInTableView:(NSTableView *)TableView
etc.
Question is, this works when I have one table, when I want to talk to
another, how do I do it? Do I compare TableView somehow to see which
table it's responding to? Or have I (as I suspect) made a mess of
seperating out the data model from the controller (ie. I havent
seperated them!).
As I said, probably a hopelessly newbie question, but I want to try and
get the MVC stuff right from day one so I thought I'd ask before I
started fudging things to get them working.
Thanks in advance,
Keith
