Data Sources and NSTableView

Question

I know that table sources need a data source to store the data that will be displayed in the table. Lets say that I'm going to make my AppController a data source of my table view and that I am creating a connection in the interface builder. My question is that my actual data will be stored in an array, let myArray call it when I set the data source in the code, should I do it

 [tableView setDataSource:myArray]; or this [tableView setDataSource:self];

I am confused by this. setting the data source using the keyword "i" installed it in the AppController, if I'm not mistaken.
