It contains methods for adding strings, inserting strings, sorting strings and searching for strings. StringList can also add strings from a delimited string (such as the ones passed to an app by the workspace). The delimiters can be supplied or assumed to be white space. Finally, StringList implements a browser delegate method so that it can easily display itself if set to be a browser delegate. To use this object inside of InterfaceBuilder, simply drag its icon from the palettes window into the suitcases window. Then drag in a browser and set its delegate to be the stringlist. Type in some entries into StringList's inspector and test interface. The browser fills up!

Don't even talk to me about warranties. ******************************************************************************/ @implementation StringList : Storage - init { // Customize Storage to be 'char *' only [super initCount:0 elementSize:4 description:"*"]; // StringList is assumed to be sorted by default and when emptied // Adding a string without sorted flag causes 'isSorted' to be set to NO isSorted = YES; return self; } /****************************************************************************** addString:, addStringIfAbsent: addStringNoCopy: addStringIfAbsentNoCopy: addString:at:, addStringIfAbsent:at:, addStringIfAbsent:at: addStringSorted:, addStringIfAbsentSorted:, addStringIfAbsentNoCopySorted: These methods are convenience methods that simply call the master addString method and provide shorter names for cleaner use assuming the defaults of ifAbsent=NO, noCopy=NO, sorted=NO and at=count.
