That thought had occured to me, but making it readwrite doesn't seem to help. 
Cocoa NIB loading doesn't seem to call accessors, it seems to access them more 
directly. I even tried this:


-(Class1 *)class1 {
        return class1;
}

-(void)setClass1:(Class1 *)v {
        NSLog(@"setClass1: %@", v);
        [self willChangeValueForKey:@"class1"];
        class1 = v;
        [self didChangeValueForKey:@"class1"];
}

But they don't get called.

I even tried adding to awakeFromNIB:

        id old = [self class1];
        [self setClass1:nil];
        [self setClass1:old];

To try and force the issue, but to no avail.

Someone has observed that my code works when called from main() and bypassing 
IB. But it still doesn't work when loaded from a NIB!
