The only reason to subclass Deduction (with SDeduction) and then DeductionLine (with SDeductionLine) is to get an SDependency object. Is there an easier way? I suppose I could just copy the Dependency class files and then modify it for this particular project; but I was hoping for a different way. Thanks.



I think that what you would typically do is either to add:

        "-[DeductionLine initWithDependency:]"

        // Where Deduction line doesn't know, or care about, what particular
// type of object is being passed, as long as it is either a subclass of
        // Dependency, or it conforms to a specific protocol.

Or something like:

        "-[DeductionLine initWithProperty:]"

        // Where the caller doesn't know about different Dependency classes,
// and instead specify some type of configuration / context property, to
        // which the DeductionLine responds by instantiating an appropriate
        // Dependency subclass.
