I have an array of model objects displayed in an NSTableView controlled via binding through an NSArrayController. One of the ivars of the model is of class NSCalendarDate and is bound to one of the NSTableColumns.

In basic form it displays OK, but the default date format is too long. Unfortunately the NSDateFormatter included in IB cannot handle the
NSShortDateFormatString. There is no token for this (and I want the short format to be as set by the user in System Preferences, rather than imposing a format myself).

So I thought I'd write a ValueTransformer instead. Here's the code:


Not that this directly solves the problem you're seeing, but as an alternate approach you could write your own NSDateFormatter subclass instead

Thanks for the suggestion. I may have to do that, but I think that means I'd need to attach the formatter programatically to each date column (I have several). I was hoping to avoid setting up all those outlets and connections.
