Hello,
I'm trying to replicate the Finder's behaviour for date fields when
resizing. I found this on the archives which pretty much has the answer:
http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2005/8/9/143911
I'm trying to update it so that it returns the correct value for the
current localisation. This is the full code of my NSCell subclass
(debugging commented out):
@implementation DMSquishableDateCell
- (void)drawWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView;
{
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]
autorelease];
[dateFormatter setFormatterBehavior:NSDateFormatterBehavior10_4]; //
needed?
int width = cellFrame.size.width;
if (width < 130)
[dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterShortStyle];
else if (width < 145)
[dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterMediumStyle];
else // if (width < 170)
[dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterLongStyle];
[dateFormatter setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterNoStyle];
[self setFormatter:dateFormatter];
[super drawWithFrame:cellFrame inView:controlView];
//NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceReferenceDate:
118800];
//NSLog(@"formatted date: %@", [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date]);
// if ([self hasValidObjectValue])
// NSLog(@"formatted date: %@", [dateFormatter stringFromDate:[self
objectValue]]);
}
@end
In my awakeFromNib: method where the table is created, I set the cell
thusly:
DMSquishableDateCell *dateCell = [[[DMSquishableDateCell alloc] init]
autorelease];
NSTableColumn *creationDateColumn = [table
tableColumnWithIdentifier:@"creation_date"];
[creationDateColumn setDataCell:dateCell];
However, the column is completely blank. If I remove the three lines
above, the dates are properly displayed. The lines that I've commented
above verify that the formatter itself is working properly. The cell
objects come straight from CoreData, and seem to be objects of class
"__NSCFDate".
What am I doing wrong?!?
Thanks!
Demitri
