I interested in learning more about Apple MVC. After looking over apple's doc on cocoa bindings (Cocoa Bindings I decide to write a simple one screen two columns tableview app using an NSArrayController to be able to sort on any column as well provide searching of the tableview.
Here is what I have so far:
import Cocoa
class ViewController: NSViewController {
@IBOutlet var searchResultsController: NSArrayController!
@IBOutlet weak var searchTextField: NSSearchField!
@IBOutlet weak var nameTable: NSTableView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
var personArray: NSMutableArray = dataArray()
// nameTable = nameArray
}
func dataArray()->NSMutableArray{
let arr = NSMutableArray()
arr.add(Person.createPerson(fName: "Bob", lName: "Comarda"))
arr.add(Person.createPerson(fName: "John", lName: "Jones"))
arr.add(Person.createPerson(fName: "Jane", lName: "Wereskla"))
arr.add(Person.createPerson(fName: "Betty", lName: "Wereskla"))
arr.add(Person.createPerson(fName: "Betty", lName: "Adams"))
return arr
}
class Person:NSObject{
var firstName:String = ""
var lastName:String = ""
class func createPerson(fName:String, lName:String)->Person{
let person = Person()
person.firstName = fName
person.lastName = lName
return person
}
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override var representedObject: Any? {
didSet {
// Update the view, if already loaded.
}
}
}
I don't see how to populate my tableview with the array above. What do I need to do next?
Thanks
