Here's my declaration. The table view is an ivar.
@interface MyCustomView : NSView <NSTableViewDelegate,
NSTableViewDataSource>

If I do not implement numberOfRowsInTableView: and
tableView:objectValueForTableColumn:row: then this error is written to the
console:

*** Illegal NSTableView data source (< MyCustomView: 0x1019ab7b0>).  Must
implement numberOfRowsInTableView: and
tableView:objectValueForTableColumn:row:

If I change my declaration to this: @interface MyCustomView : NSView
<NSTableViewDelegate>
then I get this build warning:

 Sending 'VTRColumnView *__strong' to parameter of incompatible type
'id<NSTableViewDataSource>'


This isn't a critical issue, I was just wondering if someone had
encountered the same situation.

Chuck
