Thanks Ken,
Your thoughtful answer clarified what I have been experiencing. On recent
machines readInBackground is definitely a small toll compared to rsync - it is
on older slower Macs that the toll got closer to rsync's write and really
crunched it. I am trying to accommodate older OS and ppc

Hi,
I am creating an aggregate object, for a project, with an initialization method:
-(id)initWithString:(id)aString {
if(![super init]) {
return nil;
}
if([aString isKindOfClass:[NSString class]]) {
self.string = (NSString *)aString;
Thanks Ken,

The frameworks contain plenty of initWithString: (NSString*) declaration
That was my thought too. You mention that your CFAString is an NSObject
subclass but do not mention what your other class is.
On a similar note, you might want to reconsider the name of CFAString. As you
are probably aware, Core Foundation classes are prefixed with CF, and there is
even a CFStr

You can use standard C's stdio lib: fopen(), fread(), fseek(), etc.
Objective-C is a superset of C. You can use any C library in
Objective-C, exactly the same way you'd

No, no, wrong, run for cover, incoming apocalypse. Always 'if (!(self=[super

Ah, yes... The apocalypse was a slip... Wrote the function quite quickly.
Thanks for the advice.
As for my project, the main reason I chose to use (id) instead of anything else
is that I am trying to build a set of frameworks that are "somewhat" redundant,

Hey Scott and Conrad,
I may be getting into some ... bad territory here, but what I am trying to
achieve is the following...
First, the init method I posted belongs to CFAString.
CFAString is an aggregate that contains a reference to an NSString (and other
objects) and is also meant to mimic N
When working with an NSScrollView, sometimes my document view is smaller than
my content/clip view. (the document view's size is dynamically generated
depending on the data that needs to be rendered; or the user may make the
window much larger than the document view.) In these cases I would lik
