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 Of course, this is no rejection of KVO, which remains essential and creatively productive, despite being mechanically outdated. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
