How to increase the row height in NSTableView based on the text Content?

Question

How to increase the row height in a NSTableView based on the text Content.Row height should be increased when there is more text and the row should shrink when the text is deleted.

I implemented the textDidChange notification in my subclass of NSTableView,but I did not find any method which will increase the row height. setRowHeight of NSTableView will increase the height of every row in the tableview. I would like to a variable row height.Can I have any sample code or any pointers to accomplish this.

Tried to implement the following deleagate

- (CGFloat)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView heightOfRow:(NSInteger)row

by calculating the string length,Now I am able to increase the row height ,but the NSTextFieldCell height is same. How can I increase the height of the textfield when the row height changes.

corbin dunn gave a solution:

• fix your autoresizing/AutoLayout coinstraints so the text view sticks to its container,
• calculate the row height -tableView:heightOfRow: with the help of a custom NSTableCellView object.
