To be more precise, my confusion is with bindings and NSTableView.
What I want to do is this:
1) Have a table with n columns (let's say 2, for kicks) and a variable
number of rows
2) Column 1 holds a user-defined string/name for each entry (row)
3) Column 2 holds a popup with a set of choices. The popup is loaded
from a persistent collection of objects
Creating a new entry, with a "+" button", will instantiate an XObject
(arbitrary name). The "name" property of the new XObject will be set
in column 1, and a number of optional settings for XStuff (arbitrary
property) will be loaded into the popup in column 2.
This doesn't seem like a big deal, but I'm pretty confused. I want to
set this up using bindings, but I'm note sure how I populate the popup
in column 2, and I'm also unclear on who manages storing the index of
the popup selection? Do I need to have a method to handle this in my
XObject class, or is this something NSArrayController does?
If anyone could provide me with a run-through of the basic things I
have to cover to manage this I'd really appreciate it - most of the
tutorials I've found only cover single items in table cells, not
automatically-populated popups...
thanks,
J.
