Not entirely true... according to the Application Menu and Pop-up List Programming Topics for Cocoa document, under "Choosing validateMenuItem: or validateUserInterfaceItem:"... "In general, you should use validateUserInterfaceItem: instead of validateMenuItem: since the former will also work for toolbar items which have the same target and action. If, however, there is additional work that you want to do that is specific to a menu item, use validateMenuItem:—for example, validateMenuItem: is also a good place to toggle titles or set state on menu items to make sure they're always correct." So yes, in most cases, -validateUserInterfaceItem: is more appropriate, but some cases would benefit from using -validateMenuItem: instead. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
