The Cocoa docs seem silent on how to achieve this.
I have an NSTextFieldCell subclass that gets sent an object from
bindings. The reason for sending it an object is that I want the cell
to display a number of the object's attributes - which it does nicely
through custom drawing.
Now I need to allow editing of the text in the cell. I have overridden:
editWithFrame:inView:editor:delegate:event:
and its buddy:
selectWithFrame:inView:editor:delegate:start:length:
These bring up the text editor nicely. However, as I have an object
at the cell, I need to present a string to this mechanism (the name
property of my object), and similarly I need to somehow obtain the
value from the editor when editing has finished. At the moment, the
default behaviour has the editor coming up with placeholder text, and
when editing is finished I get an KVC error, e.g.:
Error setting value for key path of object <MyClass: 0x1b385c0> (...)
from bound object <NSTableColumn: 0x1b1ab20>(null)): [<MyClass
0x1b385c0> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: the entity MyClass is not key
value coding-compliant for the key .
Does anyone know how to wire up the editing so that I can provide
initial text to the editor and prevent whoever it is from attempting
to set the final value directly onto the bound object (which it
clearly doesn't know how to do as it's a particular attribute of the
object at the cell)?
