That situation is, well, fluid. Historically this stuff was all in Objective-C, so subclassing worked just fine. The introduction of the CFNetwork underpinnings made subclassing a risky proposition. Recently more of the underpinnings are actually in Objective-C, or explicitly support subclassing properly, so this is getting better again. > If it really is subclassable, it looks like a subclass has to reimplement the > entire API by overriding and not calling `super`, correct? Right. I have another bug on file requesting that this be made easier <rdar://problem/16353274>. Since filing that, however, I've found that it is easier than I originally thought, at least in the specific case of providing an alternative cookie store for NSURLSession. IIRC you just need to override the 'task' methods: -storeCookies:forTask: -getCookiesForTask:completionHandler: None of the other methods get called; I recommend you implement them as no-ops, just in case.
