Thanks Henrik,
I guess things are much simpler if all parts know enough about the data

I would say an adapter class is part of the controller, and it's ok for
the controller to know about the formats of both the model and the view
- it's job is to translate, and facilitate model data into generic view

In my world, an adapter is code I write to shoehorn code I didn't write into my

Well, not every object has to be a Model, a View, or a Controller. You
can have your controller and view work with an instance of an adapter.
You wouldn't want an adapter hanging out in the ether - but but your MVC

There's no need to put a sound processing class within the view class

Each day I look for more.
As a result of people talking about RobotLegs I bought and today
