I think your problem is that Class2 isn't properly KVO compliant for
the key "class1". Consider what happens when your nib is loaded. At
some point, the nib loader needs to set "class1" to its correct value.
Since the property is readonly and synthesized, there's no setter
method, so the instance variable is changed directly. (I'm going from
memory here, but I believe that's what documented to happen.) That
presumably fails to trigger any KVO notifications, and your
"keyPathsForValuesAffectingMyMethod" is not consulted.
Try this:
...
@interface Class2 ()
@property(readwrite) Class1 *class1;
@end
@implementation Class2
@synthesize class1;
....
If my theory is correct, that should cause the outlet to be set via a
KVC-compliant setter, and the keypath dependency should start working.
