I'm not a fan of isInitialized either, but even less enthralled by duplicated code. Furthermore, couldn't one make the case that a class that's well-fit for subclassing has exactly one technique for setting a property (the setter), giving subclasses full control over that behavior? We've been over this before so I'll leave it at that. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
