You're still not getting it. There are no such objects. NIBs are object graph templates, not object graphs. If two.xib is loaded twice, to which "object id 456" does "object id 123" have a connection? > Well, it looks like I'm in for some disappointment here.

You keep referring to "singleton" in a way which makes no sense to me. Singleton's have nothing to do with NIBs, as far as I see. In fact, it's pretty difficult to imagine how a singleton could be contained in a NIB. > To be pristinely clear, I am *NOT* asking how I could programatically > implement > awakeFromNib and perform the magic myself at runtime I may have missed them, but I didn't see suggestions that you approach it this way. I suggested, and I saw others suggest, that you connect to File's Owner or Application or bind to or through those. Doing so can be done completely within IB, although the properties of classes do have to be coded.
