This is MiscSwapContentsController.h in view mode; [Download] [Up]
/* MiscSwapContentsController.h
*
* A very simple class for controlling swapAble views. A subclass is a must
* to easily work with the MiscSwapView classes.
*
* Usage: Just create a instance and connect it to the view that holds the
* should swap in when the trigger object is activated.
* As an alternative you can set the tag this view is related to by
* creating an object with the right tag and setting it to be the
* trigger. Its very easy to do this with the IB.
*
* Notes: If you create your own viewController you should really make a sub-
* class of this object. Otherwise you might get problems if you do not
* implement all the methods because the swapViews are very lazy in
* respondsTo checking.
*
* When the view willSwapOut you should ensure that NO colorWells are
* activated!! This may cause some trouble or inconsistency!!!!

/*
* History: 14.02.94 Changed the classes name to MiscSwapContentsController
* from the MiscSwapSubviewController becauses it fits better
* to what it really is.
*
* 24.01.94 Made it a Misc object and changed it to work with the
* new Misc stuff.
*
* 09.01.94 Added the ok/revert stuff.
*
* 08.01.94 Derived from my old swapViewdelegate. The code+methods
* were cleaned up a bit.
*
*
* Bugs: - No read/write.
*
* - I could have automated the colorWell 'problem' but I don't think it
* would be a good idea. It's not only a colorWell problem.
* Swapping out has some affect on EVERY object that is linked to the
* outside world.
* A buildin soultion can not handle every case where object will be
* linked to the outside world.
* ( I thank the guys form UNInspector Kit because they made the
* notice that problem through their release notes. Anyway I think
* this kit has a more general approach towards inspectors. )
