I think I'm confused now about what scenario we are talking about. Are you saying that the object you insert with [NSArrayController insertObject...] is *not* a NSManagedObject, but is a proxy object that is linked to the NSManagedObject? Or are you referring to the NSArrayController itself as a proxy object? I also don't understand what "the object in the NSArrayController reacts to actions performed on buttons linked to it" means. There aren't any objects "in" a NSArrayController. Or do you mean the NSArrayController instance itself has buttons linked to it? And I also don't understand what's being "overwritten". Do you mean the Core Data persistent store? I've got a feeling that what you're trying to do is put an "ordered containment layer" (a sorted NSArray, basically) between the Core Data NSSet in your data model and the NSArrayController. If so, I think that's perfectly fine, but it should be part of your data model, and you can't just use the NSArrayController for the purpose. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
