NSCell with Embedded NSView

Folks,

I'd appreciate any hints and suggestions about how to properly draw an NSView within an NSCell in an NSTableView. I _almost_ have it working. The problem I am struggling with is that only the cell in the very last row is being drawn properly. The crux of the matter is that I am trying to use a 'floating' view for rendering the contents of each cell in the single column in the table. (I need to use this view because the data being shown is complex and does not lend itself to composition in columns: it's a two-line presentation where both lines do not line up column-wise.)

The floating view approach saves having to have, potentially, tens of thousands of subviews, one for each row. Unfortunately, trying to draw the view in the cell's drawWithFrame:

- (void) drawWithFrame: (NSRect) cellFrame inView: (NSView*) controlView
{
    if ([cellView superview] != controlView)
		[controlView addSubview: cellView];

	[cellView setFrame: cellFrame];
	[cellView display];
}

results in recursion:

#0 0x0021d124 in -[MySpecialView display] at MySpecialView.mm:40
#1 0x0021cf10 in -[MySpecialCell drawWithFrame:inView:] at MySpecialCell.mm:68
#2 0x9372d5ec in -[NSTableView _drawContentsAtRow:column:clipRect:]

#9 0x936b9674 in -[NSView _displayRectIgnoringOpacity:isVisibleRect:rectIsVisibleRectForView:]
#10 0x936ae968 in -[NSView displayIfNeeded]
-- Here we go again
#11 0x0021d17c in -[MySpecialView display] at MySpecialView.mm:43

#20 0x936b9674 in -[NSView _displayRectIgnoringOpacity:isVisibleRect:rectIsVisibleRectForView:]
#21 0x936ae968 in -[NSView displayIfNeeded]
-- Here we go again
#22 0x0021d17c in -[MySpecialView display] at MySpecialView.mm:43
#23 0x0021cf10 in -[MySpecialCell drawWithFrame:inView:] at MySpecialCell.mm:68
#24 0x9372d5ec in -[NSTableView _drawContentsAtRow:column:clipRect:]
#25 0x9372ce78 in -[NSTableView drawRow:clipRect:]
#26 0x9372cc34 in -[NSTableView drawRowIndexes:clipRect:]
#27 0x9372c2bc in -[NSTableView drawRect:]
#28 0x936c0e78 in -[NSView _drawRect:clip:]
#29 0x936c0438 in -[NSView _recursiveDisplayAllDirtyWithLockFocus:visRect:]


What is the recommended way to draw a floating NSView in response to a NSCell being redrawn?

Thanks,
Mike
