Re: NSController, KVC & AppleScript not co-operating

Hello, all 

I'm running Mac OS 10.3.2, build 7D24.

I just tested mmalc's suggestion about overriding
- (void)setValue:newValue forKey:(NSString *)key
in the Model classes.

It doesn't help. I'll continue using

> [self willChangeValueForKey: thisKey];
> // main body of the set accessor goes here...
> [self didChangeValueForKey: thisKey];

On my .Mac homepage
http:/homepage.mac.com/donbriggs
I've posted
ToManyDemo_04Mar09.dmg
among the examples as an update to the "ToManyDemo" there.
The example has some classes to support AppleScriptable to-many
relationships, all under Creative Commons license.

All best,
Don
