If I understand you, make a method which you can call directly and call
this also from your delegate selector.
I was trying to say that if you implement a class that has the following
method:
-(void) setDelegate: (id) delegate;
You are more or less obligated to call:
[delegate delegateMethod]
somewhere in your implementation. Otherwise, the delegate never does
anything.
However, if you generalize the question, as Bill seems to have done,
then normally, you never call
[delegate delegateMethod]
because that is up to the class that implements -setDelegate:.
Thanks,

Can we call delegates explicitly, Please reply soon.
Yes. But it is a bad idea.
What exactly was the question, and why is it a bad idea? I'm unable
to follow the conversation, it seems ... ?
I am not entirely certain either, but I know that if you're writing
the code for the object that accepts the delegate object, you kind of
have to call the delegate methods explicitly at the appropriate times
or they don't get called. There's no magic sauce that makes that
happen without you providing it.
So, I suppose the answer really depends on what the question means.
