Hi Tom,

thanks a lot for that piece of code! I used your code to make bindings work in a custom subclass of NSTextField which reacts to scrolling.

Sorry, I’ve been meaning to get around to this for ages. In the mean time, have a look at mmalc’s examples if you haven’t already:

Hi Tom,

Could you please give me an working example project of your code? I couldn’t make it work since I’m not so sure where to put these codes, especially where to write [self propagateValue:newColor forBinding:@"color"];. Thanks in advance. My email is nonamelive#gmail.com

[...] For a more complete look at how views propagate changes back to the bound object, see my article: Implementing Your Own Cocoa Bindings. [...]

That is fine with me. Good luck with the book.

Tom, I’m writing a chapter on custom controls in the forthcoming “More Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X”, and I used this code as a starting point for making a control bindable. In the end, my code looks a lot like yours. Is this OK with you?

If you have access, you might want to take a look at the Cocoa Tips & Tricks session video from WWDC 2008. That talk covers this technique.

I’ve been doing something pretty similar but I hadn’t broken it out into a category. This is a great post and incredibly useful if you’ve been struggling with implementing custom bindings.
