I think I got it, thanks ..

I want to retain Tiger compatibility(at least for now) so I changed my
model slightly. I created a YKKFlickrPhoto class. A YKKFlickrPhotoList
has an NSArray of these.

I load in all the photos into the photolist. I send
[m_photosController setObjectClass[YKKFlickrPhoto class]]; //
(m_photosController is an NSArrayController)
[m_photosController setContent:photos];

but [m_photosController content] returns null
I am certain photos is not null.
Also tried: 	[m_photosController bind:@"contentArray" toObject:photos
withKeyPath:@"" options:nil];

here is my observing method:

- (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object
change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context
{
	if (context == SelectedObjectsContext)
	{
		if ([[object selectedObjects] count] > 0)
		{
			if ([[object selectedObjects] objectAtIndex:0] != nil)
			{
				// get the photolists for the current user, find the photolist
that matches the selection
				NSMutableDictionary *currentPhotoLists = [[self currentUser] photoLists];

				YKKFlickrPhotoList *currentPhotoList = [currentPhotoLists
objectForKey:[[object selectedObjects] objectAtIndex:0]];
				NSArray *photos = [currentPhotoList photos];
				NSLog(@"photos %@", photos);

				[m_photosController setObjectClass:[YKKFlickrPhoto class]];
				[m_photosController setContent:photos];
				//[m_photosController bind:@"contentArray" toObject:photos
withKeyPath:@"" options:nil];
				NSLog(@"[m_photosController content] %@", [m_photosController content]);
			}
		}
	}
	else
	{
		[super observeValueForKeyPath:keyPath ofObject:object change:change
context:context];
	}
}

I want to bind the photos to a controller so that I can display their
contents .. suggestions?

Michael
