Yes. The reason I use the notification is, of course, the same reason you always using a notification, because the observer is not known to the observee, and/or it makes for nicer encapsulation. But if you didn't have these reasons, indeed a simple message would work. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
