Hmm, it appears the developer documentation I have locally on my machine is slightly out of date. After reading that link (and the updated description of setter= and getter=), I see now why what I'm doing isn't working. Properties and KVO/KVC aren't complimentary to each other... although it'd be nice if they were. I'll have to re-work my object to get it to be properly compliant. But, I still appear to have an issue with defining a custom getter/setter. Defining a property as @property (setter=mySetMethod:,getter=myMethod) id valueTest; and sending my object a valueTest message, I get the unrecognized selector sent to instance warning. Reading (and re-reading several times) http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/Articles/chapter_5_section_3.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001163-CH17-SW17 it appears that I don't need to define anything other than the @property but unless I also place -(id) valueTest; -(void) setValueTest:(id)_value; in the interface, the object can't find a method signature. This is a little more confusing that I originally thought. I appreciate all the help, though. -- Jim http://nukethemfromorbit.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
