resizing a subview and having superviews / window resize

Question

My window is structured like so: NSWindow -> NSView -> NSTabView -> NSScrollView -> NSTextView. If I change the size of the NSScrollView with setFrameSize: the superviews / window do not resize to accommodate my larger or smaller NSScrollView. Is it possible to programmatically have the Window, etc. automatically resize when I set the size of a subview or do I need to somehow calculate the size of all the UI components and resize the window itself? Thanks in advance for any assistance or direction.

There is no built-in way to do this. You'll have to compute the sizes yourself. Assuming all the views in your hierarchy are set to auto-resize properly, you could just change the window's frame and let auto-resizing do its job.
