Well, it is documented that Core Data's implementation of setFoo: is equivalent to - (void)setFoo:(id)newValue { [self willChangeValueForKey:@"foo"] ; [self setPrimitiveFoo:newValue] ; [self didChangeValueForKey:@"foo"] ; } There are no branching statements in there. > or do I need to add the code in both setFoo: and setPrimitiveFoo:? It's better than either case you've proffered. I've always put my custom behaviors in setFoo:. The only time I've ever messed with setPrimitiveFoo: is when debugging. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
