It might well be possible that I am thinking about the bindings incorrectly...and in fact all one needs in this case is to bind the view( textfield and slider) to the controller with the correct keypath, and that the relationship of a controller to it's content is the issue I am not completely understanding.

Binding only involves two endpoints (objects). That there are additional inter-object connections involved in a design is a design issue and not inherent to bindings in any way. So it is irrelevant to the view-controller bindings how the controller gets its content, and there are multiple ways this can be done.


Thanks Keary...yes...I think this is the part I was not completely seeing.



It appears that you are assuming that bindings involves three objects ion an MVC pattern. MVC is a design pattern, bindings are only one way to "connect" objects, such as M-C or V-C, but are not themselves an implementation of MVC.

Sorry if it came across that way...but you do point out what I was missing ie the relationship of the controller to it's content ( model). I will think of the content as an ivar/outlet of the controller, and thus, as you say, the way this is connected to the model is not the issue in the actual binding.

Thanks for your time.
