Hi All,

I was playing around with dragging items into NSTableView and I ran into a 
interesting problem. When I drag an item into my table, the following delegate 
gets called.


- (BOOL)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView acceptDrop:(id<NSDraggingInfo>)info 
row:(NSInteger)row dropOperation:(NSTableViewDropOperation)dropOperation {

    [self performInsertWithDragInfo:info row:row];

    return YES;

}

Since I am returning YES, we are accepting this drop. In 
"performInsertWithDragInfo", I have a requirement to save the new add into a 
file and then parse through NSArray which is my data source and might make some 
modifications. After the modifications, I reload the datasource and repopulate 
the tableview.


    [_tableContents removeAllObjects];

    for (NSString *fileStr in filtered) {

        NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL URLWithString:[fileStr 
stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];

        DesktopEntity *entity = [DesktopEntity entityForURL:fileURL];

        if ([entity isKindOfClass:[DesktopEntity class]])

            [_tableContents addObject:entity];

    }

    [ltableView reloadData];

This is bad idea as I am doing this inside " performInsertWithDragInfo" before 
I return from tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView 
acceptDrop:(id<NSDraggingInfo>)info row:(NSInteger)row 
dropOperation:(NSTableViewDropOperation)dropOperation which looks wrong to me. 
However I did not observe any issues on 10.9 where I extensively tested this. 
When I ran the same code on 10.7 I started noticing issues.

May 16 09:49:55 Mac-107-Test-Machine GUD[13022]: *** Assertion failure in 
-[NSTableRowData _addRowViewForVisibleRow:withPriorView:], 
/SourceCache/AppKit/AppKit-1138.51/TableView.subproj/NSTableRowData.m:2484
May 16 09:49:55 Mac-107-Test-Machine GUD[13022]: Row 1 should be in the valid 
visible section
I don't know why this is not seen in 10.9.
Is there any delegate that would get called after acceptDrop? In the 
documentation I saw tableView:draggingSession:endedAtPoint:operation: but I 
don't think its relevant here. Am I missing something?

Regards,
Varun
