Esteban, Would you be willing to post your subclass? It might be useful both in defining signatures and in naming them.

I think Eliot's idea is to form "libraries" of generic callbacks (for mars, for instance, I have CocoaCallback, child of Callback, who defines all my needed signatures, looks a lot at first instance, but if you see in detail, finally there are not so much variants) best, Esteban El 01/03/2012, a las 3:57p.m., Schwab,Wilhelm K escribió: > Esteban, > > Will this work?
