The Objective-C 2.0 Programming Guide prescribes the use of direct ivar access inside an initializer[1] and inside dealloc[2]. As far as your point about when swizzling occurs, it can only happen at the point of a KVO observer registration: the runtime can't predict the future. --Kyle Sluder [1] http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/Articles/ocAllocInit.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001163-CH22-SW14 [2] http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/Articles/ocProperties.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001163-CH17-SW16 _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
