If “the subclass” is a direct subclass of NSWindowController, then it does what the NSWindowController class reference says it does: > "The default implementation does nothing.” However, it’s possible you might insert another class between the subclass and the base class in the future, and invoking the ‘super’ method protects you against inadvertently creating a bug when doing so. Also, more or less the same point, it relieves your subclass from knowing exactly what it’s a subclass of. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
