Depends entirely on need. Keeping a container sorted on insert can be quite expensive; potentially considerably more expensive than doing a single batch sort at the end. On-the-fly sorted containers are generally only applicable when updates to the container will be frequently interleaved with read operations. b.bum _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
