Hi all,
I am new to cocoa bindings so I tried to make a simple application which will simply calculate avg of employees salary and display it in a text field, using cocoa bindings. I followed these steps:
Made the model class :
Person
with one property for now -@property (readwrite, assign) int salary;
In the application delegate class I initialized a mutable array :
personArray
with certain objects like this:Person *person1 = [[Person alloc] init]; person1.salary = 5000; Person *person2 = [[Person alloc] init]; person2.salary = 15000; Person *person3 = [[Person alloc] init]; person3.salary = 7000; Person *person4 = [[Person alloc] init]; person4.salary = 9000; Person *person5 = [[Person alloc] init]; person5.salary = 11000; personArray= [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:person1, person2, person3, person4, person5,nil];
In IB I dropped a NSArrayController object, set its mode as Class -
Person
, added keysalary
in attribute pane. Then in bindings pane, binded contents array to ApplicationDelegate class with model key path set toself.personArray
.Dropped a NSTextField on window. Binded its value to ArrayController object. Assigned controller key as -
arrangedObjects
. Assigned Model key path to@avg.salary
When I executed the application I found no value being displayed in the text field.
Can anyone suggest me where I may be wrong?
Thanks,
