It used to be that if you overrode -[NSObject setValue:forUndefinedKey:] your own subclass was responsible for calling -[NSObject will/didChangeValueForKey: so that bindings and observers would work as expected.

That was fine, since it allowed one to provide different implementations depending on the key, and to generate (or not) KVC notifications. It seems that a recent update to Mac OS X (perhaps 10.5.8?) has changed this behavior. It seems that as long as you override setValue:forUndefinedKey:, KVC-compliant notifications are automatically generated for the given key.

Can anyone confirm this? This is an "interesting" change to the Cocoa framework that probably interferes with any class that overrides [NSObject setValue:forUndefinedKey:].

Thanks,
Gabe
