Responding to my own post, for clarification...

In my main window (which resides in it's own nib, and is controlled

populate the contents of that via bindings.
In my main nib file is where the controller lives that maintains the
information that I want to populate that combobox with. This
controller has a dictionary ("infoDictionary"), and the keys of that
dictionary are what I want displayed in the combobox.
My main window class has a member variable (I'm calling this
"infoController") that is a link to that information controller.
So, I attempted to set up the binding on the combobox as:
Ok, so I created an NSArrayController object in my window's nib file,
connected that to an outlet in my window class. In awakeFromNib: I
grab the keys from the infoController's infoDictionary, and pass that
to the array controller via addObjects:. It successfully populates my
combobox's content (now I just gotta work on selecting the right one).
Is this the correct way to do this? To me, it seems like a long-
winded route to get there, but then, I think that a LOT about
bindings. Is this just due to my inexperience with bindings? Or do I
just need to keep drinking the kool-aid until it eventually clicks?
(Or, are bindings *really* that roundabout?)
Thanks!
