Hi,
I currently have an application that talks to a single device over TCP/
IP. My user interface has lots of parameters and status variables. I
use bindings all over the place. The device is represented a custom
NSObject instantiated in my MainMenu.xib. The various GUI elements are
using bindings to the instantiated custom Object from the ManMenu.xib.
Now, I need to rewrite the app so that it can talk to multiple
devices. I want to use bindings and write as little code as possible
8-) I'm considering an NSDocument based Applications and using panels/
palettes to display status and controls (100's) Each device will be
represented by a different document.
My question, is :
when I select a different device, by making its window the frontmost,
how do I get the panels/palettes to display the values related to the
frontmost window/document and therefore, newly selected device. I
would hate to have to setup 100 of observers ... or manually refresh
100's sliders/textfields/...
Hopefully, what I'm trying to do was explained clearly enough so that
the collective wisdom of the list can point me toward the optimal
approach.
thx in advance.
