Have you tried mmalc's suggestion? Does his demo app work for you when targeting 10.5?

When linking against 10.5, we need you to do more things in custom NSCell's to help provide a better experience with NSTableView. From the AppKit release notes:

http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/Cocoa/AppKit.html

NSTableView/NSOutlineView - Cell Hit Testing, Drag and Drop, and Cell EditingNSTableView now uses the new NSCell hit testing API to perform certain actions. Custom NSCell subclasses in applications that link on or after Leopard should properly implement - hitTestForEvent:inRect:ofView:; see NSCell.h for more information.

NSTableView performs hit testing in the cells to do the following actions:
- Drag and Drop: NSTableView calls hitTestForEvent:inRect:ofView in canDragRowsWithIndexes:atPoint. If the hit cell returns NSCellHitTrackableArea, the particular row will be tracked instead of dragged.
- Cell Editing: When NSTableView recieves a mouse down, single-click editing of text (like Finder) will happen if there is only one row selected, and the cell returns NSCellHitEditableTextArea.


See the DragNDropOutlineView demo application for an example of how to properly implement the NSCell methods.


So, you probably have a custom cell, and need to not return NSCellHitTrackableArea. See NSCell.h for more information.

More than likely, this is your problem.

I implement all the datasource methods, register for the drag types, and commented out the custom tableview's mouseUp/Down methods, but still nothing when compiled for 10.5. writeRowsWithIndexes:... isn't being called. Any other info I could give that could be helpful?

Thanks,
Mitch

I have set my project to use the 10.5 sdk, and now the rows cannot be reordered. If I set it to 10.4 sdk they can be again. It appears that - (BOOL)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView writeRowsWithIndexes:(NSIndexSet *)rowIndexes toPasteboard: (NSPasteboard*)pboard is not being called with the 10.5 sdk. Should I be using something else instead, or could anything else be wrong?

There's probably some other problem. See <http://homepage.mac.com/mmalc/CocoaExamples/Bookmarks.zip > for an example that works correctly on 10.4 and 10.5 (currently comment out the NSIndexSet category for 10.5).
