I may not have made myself clear enough: I need objects bound to this
property to be notified whenever the selection of the array controller
changes, much like the existing "canAdd:" and "canRemove:" properties
of NSArrayController. This property has nothing to do with whether or
not the array controller CAN change the index set; the default
behavior of removeSelection: is fine with me.

I'm assuming you've written an accessor that makes the appropriate
judgments based on selectionIndex and selectionIndexes. It's not
getting called, however, because the framework doesn't know it's
there! I would override removeSeletion: like so:
- (void)removeSelection:(NSIndex *)index { //maybe not exact
wording, but whatever
if ([self canRemoveSelection]) {
[super removeSelection:index];
}
}

Hello all,
I've got an NSArrayController subclass with a computed property:
@property (readonly) BOOL canRemoveSelection;
(This basically adds some application-specific checks to the
canRemove: property, so that I can bind a "remove" button in
Interface Builder.)
I want the property to be recomputed every time the
"selectionIndex" or "selectionIndexes" of the array controller
change, so, in my ".m" file, I have:
+ (NSSet*)keyPathsForValuesAffectingCanRemoveSelection
{
return [NSSet setWithObjects:@"selectionIndex",
@"selectionIndexes", nil];
}
(I realize this is probably redundant, but bear with me.)
However, the accessor for the property (i.e., "-
(BOOL)canRemoveSelection") is never called, beyond the initial call
when the object is created. As a result, the button bound to the
property never changes state.
I've checked to make sure that -setSelectionIndexes: is being
called, and it is, but the property is not re-computed.
Does anyone see anything immediately wrong here?
