This class is intended to be used as a generic Inspector which simplifies the programming of Inspectors. Most of the things that Inspectors do is encapsulated in this class.
The use of this class is simple.
To create a NewInspector: [NewInspector new]
This method will guarantee that only one instance of
NewInspector will ever be created. Further calls to
new will return a pointer to the one instance of
NewInspector.
To add a view: [myNewInspectorInstance addView: : :]
The supervisor you specify in addView:::, must implement a windowDidUpdate: method which deals with updating the values in your view. This supervisor can be of any class.
For simple uses, this is all you have to do. There are some more advanced features which are listed in the man page and in NewInspector.h with comments.
P.S: To pass a view to NewInspector, I group it in IB which gives me a box. I then send [theBox contentView] to NewInspector.
