I was referring to where the OP said: "but would it be safe, given the fact that sum and count are bound to some textFields/progressIndicator" And presumably it would not be as the instance variables referred to were being mutated in a secondary thread.

I am used to a more robust threading model. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
