Aaarrgghhhhh!!! My problem is that I used Delphi ever since v1, which call them class methods, but for the past five years, I have also been using C#, which call them static methods. I stand corrected and promise to try and get it right from now on :-) > Beyond just being a matter of conventional terminology of the language > community, Objective-C class methods are just as dynamic as instance methods. > So the adjective "static" is inapplicable. Unfortunately, "static" seems to have developed a mind of its own :-) Joanna -- Joanna Carter Carter Consulting _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
