A bit of a newbie question maybe. I'm having an object that serves as
a datasource for a tableview. The datasource basically contains an
array of records. I now want to display detailed information about the
selected record in a view using several textfields. This seems like
something thats probably been done a zillion times but I can't find an
example in any of my books. How do I set it up in IB? Do I have to
create an outlet in my dataSource for each of the fields of my record
and fill them with the right information each time the user selects a
different record, or is there an easier way?
That's usually how you would do it.
Can I connect all my NSTextFields to my dataSource and have a methiod
returning a value depending on which NSTextField called the method?
Text fields doesn't work like table views - they don't look up their
values by themselves, you need to set the values that they should have.
I believe I'm looking for something with the same simplicity as I have
when setting up an NSTableVIew with its different columns?
While I'm not sure it satisfies the "same simplicity" requirement, I
think that you might be able to get what you're looking for using the
new controller layer (only available on and post Panther):
