Hi - I'm new to Cocoa and I'm stuck with my first 'go it alone' application.
I have an NSTableView with 5 columns. This is controlled by an NSArrayController. I have been following Hillegass's book and have got 'Create' and 'Delete' buttons working fine.
Currently, the columns of the table hold NSString and float values. My next step is to change one of the columns to hold a predefined multi-choice set of values. For this I'm going to us NSPopUpButton Cell object.
I've been hunting through the docs and online, and my head is hurting from the sheer amount of info out there, none of which seems to be a simple and concise example of what I want to do.
So my questions are:
How to I define which options are available in the NSPopUpButton cells ? They will all be the same for each row, so I don't need to do anything fancy. I also don't need them to be editable or user-modifyable. Can someone show me how to set the values up please ?
Once I've got the values set up, how do I interrogate and set the values for each row ? I've looked at some code which seems to do this, but didn't have an NSArrayController involved, so I'm confused as to what I need to do to get it working via the NSArrayController ?
Apologies if this has been covered somewhere on this list before - I'm going thorugh the Hillegass book and things are slowly making sense, but whenever I try to do something a little different I'm faced with a mountain of complex documentation which just serves to confuse me.
thanks for any help you can give.
