IKImageBrowserView binding duplicates

Question

I binded the content of an IKImageBrowserView to an array controller of objects Person implementing the IKImageBrowserItem protocol:

– imageUID
– imageRepresentationType
– imageRepresentation

In the class Person, I want the attribute "photo" to be the same as the attribute "imageRepresentation" (that was added merely to conform to the protocol).

My solution so far is to bind the 2 attributes in the Person init method. However, I don't like to have duplicated attributes, since Person is a model class.

What should I do ? (keeping in mind that I want to preserve the name photo, and not imageRepresentation)

Since imageRepresentation is mandatory for the protocol, but you want to use the photo property, you could implement the method in this way:

- (id)imageRepresentation {
    return self.photo
}

In this way you fulfill the protocol, but you are using only photo.
