I have protocol X that is implemented by a few classes of my own. These classes are not known directly to my main code but only through the protocol (id<protocol>). When my main code tries to addObserver:self to the object id<protocol>, i get a warning saying that my protocol does not implement it. This would have worked if i used the real object behind. What should i do ? Just add a method like addObserver in the protocol and in the real object make the method just invoke the [super addobserver]. Or is there a better
way to solve it ?

If you search the archives you will find a few discussions on this subject. I don't remember the reason exactly, but you just can't use that syntax. You can use an informal protocol instead, but you won't get the compile-time checks that <protocol> gives you.
