Newbie document based application and menus question


  • Subject: Newbie document based application and menus question

This is a rather simple design question which I haven't been able to find the answer to. I am writing an application that has an NSTextView. I want to modify the text in the NSTextView in several ways and update my menus accordingly (i.e. if all the digits and white space have been removed from the text, I want the menu item responsible for this command to be disabled). I've created a document based applications and have created a NSDocument subclass. I have written another class (of type NSObject) which handles the text modification commands. I instantiated this class in the MyDocument nib file and made an outlet to the NSTextView so that I can get the string in the view. The problem is since the text modification class is in the MyDocument nib file I haven't can't connect to the menus in the mainmenu nib. If I place the text modification class in the Main Menu Nib then how would I get access to the string from NSTextview? What is the expected way of doing this?

Thanks in advance

Sarven
