Did you implement the four "dummy" datasource methods for NSOutlineView? http://theocacao.com/document.page/130


Any ideas? I'm quite surprised at the state of underdocumentation and the use of undocumented methods per this example: if drag and drop isn't supported properly using this combination of useful techniques, Apple is putting a big block in the way of developers....

In a more perfect world, Apple would have fixed the bugs in NSTreeController by 10.4.3 or 10.4.4 and perhaps even removed the opaqueness as well. I'd much rather require a minor version of 10.4 than consider not using NSTreeController at all. But it looks like we'll have to wait for Leopard. My dream is a pre-built iApp-style source pane right in IB, as even without the bugs I found it to be a lot of code to replicate such a common UI element. Maybe I'm just lazy from all the other stuff Cocoa does for us. :P


I did get a working project you may find useful. I'm still hoping someone might discover a cleaner workaround than the posing hack.

Good Luck!
