Two corrections to this. First, please ignore the atrocious "it's" error. ;-) Yes, I'm a petty, arrogant man. Second, I need to make this point a bit clearer: "In this respect, an object is entrusting a task or responsibility to its named delegate, if the delegate chooses to accept the task, or the object is giving its delegate a chance to perform some task before continuing. The delegate has no direct control over or responsibility for the superior's task, it merely finds something out for, answers a question posed by, or perform some additional work for its superior." -- I.S. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
