Matt,
You can subclass an NSView on the fly, I don't think a CustomView is
needed:
v = view :frame => [10,10,100,100]
def v.drawRect(rect)
#custom stuff here
end
Since you can just redefine methods in ruby this works great.
Maybe we should add a syntax similar to the rails associations proxies
and enable this:
module MyCustomBehaviors
def drawRect(rect)
#custom stuff here
end
end
view :frame => [10,10,100,100], :extend => MyCustomBehaviors
Thoughts?

Rich, what do you think about adding a new HotCocoa CustomView
mapping since subclassing NSView seems to be pretty common.

They do inherit constants, custom methods, etc (see lib/hotcocoa/
mapper.rb, NOTE: ugly file right now, is a target for refactor)
They are modules and those modules are mixed in.
Best,

Thanks Rich, but if I do what you recommended, I guess I would not
be able to use all the NSView extra stuff defined by the existing
NSView mapping (constants, custom methods etc..).
Wouldn't be better to make each mapping a mixin? That would allow
us to reuse some default settings and subclassing a mapped class
would give us all the mapping goodies.

This is how I would do it:
class MyNewView < NSView
def drawRect(rect)
end
end
HotCocoa::Mappings.map :my_new_view => :"MyNewView" do
defaults :frame => DefaultEmptyRect, :layout => {}
def init_with_options(view, options)
view.initWithFrame options.delete(:frame)
end
end
Then in your code you can just use it like any HotCocoa mapped class:
my_new_view :frame => [0,0,10,10]
etc.

I'm working on a new HotCocoa sample and I need to subclass NSView
to override drawRect and add few more methods.
I would like to be able to reuse all the goodies from HotCocoa and
the view helper, what's the best way to do that?
