There are two different strategies for this.
The most common (and most flexible) is to ensure that there are
variables in the class that are set to the NSTableView object.
Declare them in the code, and then connect them up in
InterfaceBuilder to the tables.
I'm struggling a bit with the Outlet connections. I'm not clear on
which way to drag the connection. The books helpfully explain that
the drag is in the direction of the flow of control, but when I want
to synch an object on the layout with a class in the program I'm not
clear on who is controlling whom. I'l get there, but I'm struggling
with it at the moment.
One way to look at it, is that
you want the outlet of the object to be set to the UI element (so,
drag from the object that contains the outlet to the UI element)
or
you want the UI element to trigger an action (so drag from the UI
element to the object that contains the action)
Overall, I'd say that action/outlet and File's Owner are two of the
'newest' concepts to learn for Cocoa for most people. Memory
management (retain/release) is the other big stumbler for many folks.
