How to bind a TextField to an IBOutlet()?

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to update an NSTextField programatically.

I've figured out how to get the current value of the Text Field from Python:

myVar = objc.IBOutlet()
....
self.myVar.stringValue()

How do I set the value of myVar from the Python side and have the GUI update? I'd like some sort of two way binding (like {myVAR} in Flex).

Thanks!

Why would you want to? The nib loader set it to a control; if you set the variable, you would lose the control.

To set the value of the control, send it a setStringValue_ (or similar) message.
