Wouldn't it be better design-wise to factor out this functionality into some helper object? Then in the child you could bind to a getter that relies upon this helper - and the parent does the same.

Just thinking loud

Seabix,

Wouldn't using performParentAction() from a subcomponent invoke an action and subsequently create a new request-response loop? I don't really think that's what you're after.

It seems to me that you really want an instance variable in the parent that you would access from the subcomponent through key value coding. Put your calculation in the getter method so KVC will access its return value through your bound key.

Maybe the "^value1ModifiedByParent" binding syntax would work for your. Otherwise you could also use a backing instance variable inside your subcomponent that binds directly to the instance variable in the parent component.

This is just off the top of my head, but seems like a more logical solution.

Is it possible to do the following? How?

ParentComponent - Parent.wo
ChildComponent - Child.wo

There is a WORepetiotion in Child.woa with a bunch of String values. So the WORepetition is bound to the NSArray listValues and to the String value.

No i wan't to give the value of each iteration up to the parent where an action (public String modifyChildValue()) is performed and the return value will show up next to the original value in the WORepetition (in Child.wo).
The Result would be something like this:

Value1   - Value1ModifiedByParent
Value2  - Value2ModifiedByParent
Value3 - Value3ModifiedByParent


Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks.
