But DanH is right, it totally depends on what you want to do. It also depends on what super does... If your subclass is setting information that is also set by super then chances are you would want to call super first. If what super does varies based on settings in your implementation, then you would want to call super last. If there is no such relationship then it doesn't matter when you call.
Also, IMHO, you would only want to skip calling super in extremely rare circumstances. And, technically speaking, you would be calling "up" to the super implementation, but that's just semantics... :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 types of people in the world...
