I'm probably missing something here, because it doesn't seem like you
should need to subclass the outline view.
As I understand it (simplified), you have two outline views, and each
has its own context menu. This part can be done completely in IB. In
addition, you want to do [something] before either menu is displayed,
right? Now, you already have a data source/delegate for the outline
views - why not implement the menu delegate method(s) in the outline
view delegate as well? I.e. - have one delegate managing both outline
views and menus.
Or is there something else you want to do?

This is what I have done except I have only one menu and hooked up
all outline views to this menu. Having a separate menu for each is a
better idea. Don't know what I was thinking there...
So I need to subclass NSOutlineView then, implement the
menuNeedsUpdate method in my subclass and set it as the menu's
delegate?

I might be misunderstanding what you're trying to do, but have you
considering creating the menus in IB and setting the outline views'
menu outlet to the appropriate menus? Then, the right menu will
show for each outline without any code on your part. If you need to
modify either of the menus before they display, you can implement
the NSMenu delegate method - (void)menuNeedsUpdate:(NSMenu *)menu.

I have a number of outline views and want to add contextual menu
support to them. The data sources are set as delegates for the

The problem is I can't find a way to get the outline view I right-
clicked in when in - (void) menuNeedsUpdate: (NSMenu*) menu
The menu update method is in the data source.
Any ideas on how to know which one of the outline views I'm about
to display the menu for?
