popup buttons and notifications

Hi,

My app is more or less based on the MVC paradigm, so I have separate classes for the view, the controller, and the model (duh ;). In the main winodw I have several popup menu's that the user can use to change settings in the model. Now the question is, how to go from the popup menu setting to the model (an NSArray of objects).

I see a few options:


1. the controller has an IBAction method connected to the popup menu, every change in the menu is then passed on to the model, and then subsequently to each object in the NSArray

2. the model is notified when the popup menu changes, and then passes the new value to each object in the NSArray

3. each object in the NSArray is notified directly when the popup menu changes

4. ....


Are there any pros and cons for each of the approaches? If I use #2 or #3 what is the notification I should 'listen to'? I only could find NSPopUpButtonWillPopUpNotification, but that doesn't give me the new value of the menu.


thanks,

- Koen.
