I assumed that since my subclass inherits from NSOutlineView which already has a delegate instance method that a delegate ivar already existed? Since this is occuring while converting to ARC could it be that _delegate is working because modern Objective-c adds the underscore to the front of ivars during synth? Still though, I do not understand why [self delegate] will not work. this must be that my delegate declarations are incorrect. > For example, here you correctly use "[self delegate]" in the if() condition > but improperly fall back to merely "delegate" for actually dispatching your > delegate message. I had replaced [self delegate] with "delegate" while troubleshooting, but both trigger the error. I am transitioning to ARC, [self delegate] was working compiling in XCode 3.2 for 10.6.8. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
