In winforms/C# most all UI Controls have a .Tag tag, so like myButton.Tag = myObject; where the Tag property is an ‘object’ type so you can basically store any type of object. How might I accomplish this in Objective-C/Cocoa? do all UI elements have something like .Tag where I can store an NSObject or something? If so, can you please provide an example. Thanks so much!
Note: I did see the integer .Tag there, but I wanted an object tag. But I guess that doesn’t exist. hoo well.
There is the possibility to add a tag, it’s an integer if I remember correctly.
This said, I’m pretty sure one never needs this functionality in Cocoa, because it just doesn’t work this way.
If you really want to add information you might be interested in the runtime’s ability to associate an object with another object.
