This approach probably wouldn't work if you allow dragging of multiple rows at
once.
This is what I did: Iterate the indexes, making a list of dragged items, and
setting the old array items to be NSNull. Then insert the items at the
designated index. Lastly remove all the NSNulls from the array.
NSMutableArray *allItemsArray = [NSMutableArray
arrayWithArray:[fileArrayController arrangedObjects]];
NSMutableArray *draggedItemsArray = [NSMutableArray
arrayWithCapacity:[rowIndexes count]];
NSUInteger currentItemIndex;
NSRange range = NSMakeRange( 0, [rowIndexes lastIndex] + 1 );
while([rowIndexes getIndexes:¤tItemIndex maxCount:1 inIndexRange:&range]
> 0) {
NSManagedObject *thisItem = [allItemsArray
objectAtIndex:currentItemIndex];
[draggedItemsArray addObject:thisItem];
[allItemsArray replaceObjectAtIndex:currentItemIndex withObject:[NSNull
null]];
}
for (NSInteger i = [draggedItemsArray count]-1; 0 <= i; i--) {
NSString *file = [draggedItemsArray objectAtIndex:i];
[allItemsArray insertObject:file atIndex:row];
}
[allItemsArray removeObject:[NSNull null]];
[fileArrayController setContent:allItemsArray];
