I registered to observe changes in the "number" column of my tree controller:

        [mItemsController addObserver: self
                forKeyPath: @"selection.number"
                options: (NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew)
                context: NULL];

My -observe: action gets called, but this line

NSLog(@"Value changed %@: %@ (%@)", inKeyPath, inChange, [inObject selection]);

dumps this to the console:

Value changed selection.number: {
   kind = 1;
   new = <null>;
} (<_NSControllerObjectProxy: 0x177cb0>)

Note that "new" is null. I would expect it to be the value of the number.


Search for "NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew" here:

        <http://homepage.mac.com/mmalc/CocoaExamples/controllers.html>


Furthermore, this line:

        NSLog(@"selection: %@", [inObject valueForKey: @"selection"]);

dumps:

        selection: <_NSControllerObjectProxy: 0x177cb0>

But if I change it to @"selection.number", it throws the exception:

"[<NSTreeController 0x1722e0> valueForUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key selection.number."


What happens if you call "-valueForKeyPath:" instead of "-valueForKey:"?
