Hi, I’m using the Scripting Bridge, and I was wondering if it ok to subclass SBXXX classes. Basically, I have a header file generated by the “sdp” tool with definitions as below:
And I’d like to subclass this to add some extra wrapping to hide some of the nastiness from the rest of the app and provide a tighter integration with the current app handling. I remember reading somewhere that these classes shouldn’t be subclassed, but I can’t seem to find it again now.
