Huh? When you call the function, don't you have to eventually do [something passMyObject:*anObject]? To me, that doesn't eliminate the nil check, just move it somewhere else. Also, messaging nil objects isn't a problem. It's only an issue with the collections. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
