How can I bind a button title to a Boolean but have a custom title for each state? For example, I have a BOOL isRunning, if YES, my button should read
"Stop Running" else "Start Running".

I can't really do this with an alternate title since when the button is pushed and temporarily held down, the title should not change as it is a
normal push "pill" button.

How about something like this? Whenever isRunning changes, it triggers an update of the button's title.


+ (void) initialize
{
    ...

    [self setKeys:[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"isRunning"]
        triggerChangeNotificationsForDependentKey:@"buttonTitle"];

    ...
}


- (NSString*) buttonTitle
{
    return [self isRunning] ? @"Stop Running" : @"Start Running";
}


- (BOOL) isRunning
{
    return _isRunning;
}

- (void) setIsRunning:(BOOL)isRunning
{
    [self willChangeValueForKey:@"isRunning"];
    _isRunning = isRunning;
    [self didChangeValueForKey:@"isRunning"];
}
