Is there a better way? Let me put it this way: could there possibly be
a worse way?
This is nuts.
Look into sort descriptors. Presumably you are trying to determine
which direction the column is sorted in so that you can sort some data
accordingly? (Otherwise, what are you trying to do?). The table view
maintains sort descriptors which not only contain the direction but
the sort key and selector to use for sorting, and these descriptors
can be simply passed to a mutable array to sort the array accordingly.
The table then redisplays the contents. The table's data source can be
informed of a change to the sort descriptors by the user (like when
they click a column header) and the data can be resorted.
