I am working through a chapter of COCOA PROGRAMMING FOR MAC OS X (3RD EDITION)
on NSArrayController
and it tells me to:
Control-Drag to make the array controller become the target of the Add New Employee button. Set the action to add:
However when I drag over the array controller
it does not highlight so I get no target options.
How do I do this correctly in the new XCode
