NSCell + bindings

Hi,

I am having a problem understanding exactly what's going on with NSCell. I created a custom NSCell which I want to diplay more than just simple text or an image. I really need to get information from a custom object so passing it a string or other intrinsic value just won't do. I have a NSMatrix view that is bound to an NSArrayController that holds some custom objects. The issue I am having is that my custom NSCell's setObjectValue method is always getting called with the string representation of the objects in the NSArrayController instead of the object itself. What am I doing wrong?

Here is some an example :

/ /----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
@interface CFCMyObject : NSObject


@end

/ /----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
@implementation CFCObjectController // : NSArrayController



- (void) awakeFromNib
{
//gridView is an instance of CFCGridView : NSMatrix
[gridView bind: @"content" toObject: self withKeyPath:@"arrangedObjects" options:nil];
}
@end

/ /----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
@implementation CFCMyCell
- (void)setObjectValue:(id <NSCopying>) object
{
//i really want my CFCMyObject instances to be passed in here
NSLog(@"setObjectValue = %@",object);
[super setObjectValue:object];
if([object isKindOfClass : [NSString class]])
{
NSLog(@"what is the point of this method? passing a string as an id seems useless");
}
}

@end

/ /----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------


Any help is much appreciated.

- Byron
