The URL Loading System Guide contained the code I quoted. Nowhere in that doc does the term "thread" appear. Yes, you are correct that I missed the comment in the related class doc that stated delegate methods will be called on the thread that started the async load operation. In hindsight I should have expected that. > So it’s bad documentation because it shows a race condition you thought up, > even though the race condition doesn’t actually exist? O_o No, the URL Loading System Guide is bad documentation because it leaves important details to the imagination of this reader. :) Marc _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
