NSOutlineViewDataSource | Mac OS X 10.0 |
Methods in this informal protocol are implemented by classes that provide the data contents for an NSOutlineView. An NSOutlineView data source delegate object must implement the following four required methods of the protocol: outlineView:child:ofItem:, outlineView:isItemExpandable:, outlineView:numberOfChildrenOfItem:, outlineView:objectValueForTableColumn: byItem:.
In each of these four methods, outlineView: is the NSOutlineView object invoking the method. Every outline view has a root item. In the invocation of the data source methods, an outline view indicates a root item as nil. Thus, if outlineView:numberOfChildrenOfItem: was invoked with nil at the item, the implementation of this method would return the number of children items for the root item.
