Re: Checkbox state inside a function

I'm using Objective-C 2.0, in Mac Os X "Leopard" - does bindings work on it ?
Yes, I've created an NSButton, tagged it with IBOutlet and connected the outlet in IB.
I really mean "instance method"- and cannot assign value to the variable (contained in "if"-"else" statement) accordingly the checkbox is selected or not.
Must say that I never had such a problem in other languages (Java, C++) which I've used before.
