I am trying to create a NSCollectionView programmatically using a NSCollectionViewDataSource.
The code is very simple:
self.collectionView = [[NSCollectionView alloc] init];
// Add collection view to self.view etc.
self.collectionView.dataSource = self;
[self.collectionView registerClass:[NSCollectionViewItem class] forItemWithIdentifier:@"test"]
self.collectionView.collectionViewLayout = gridLayout;
[self.collectionView reloadData]
This leads to the following methods getting called (if I don't set the collectionViewLayout property explicitly these two don't get called either):
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInCollectionView:(NSCollectionView*)collectionView
- (NSInteger)collectionView:(NSCollectionView*)collectionView numberOfItemsInSection:(NSInteger)section
However, collectionView:itemForRepresentedObjectAtIndexPath: is never called. Is there something else that I need to do in order to make sure that the last data source method is called? I have made sure that the two count calls return > 0, so that's not the problem.
