So, let me respond jointly to all of the comments similar to this.
Of course bindings haven’t “died”, in the sense that no one *uses* them any
more. My point was that bindings, as a conceptual software design paradigm or
implementation framework for the general presentation or handling of data,
don’t have much significance any more. We don’t sit down and *design* bindings
for our apps, typically. We just bind things together when their values need to
track each other. This should be understood as a simplification, not a denial
that some people still get into them more deeply.
Consider also that there have been no functional improvements made to bindings
since 10.5 (at least, I can’t think of even one), and that bindings were *not*
taken over to iOS in 2008.
Of course, this is no rejection of KVO, which remains essential and creatively
productive, despite being mechanically outdated.
