It would normally be sufficient, but I think you might be running into a load order issue. Is this right?: You have a class 'MyClass' defined by a plug-in, and a category 'MyClass (ExtraStuff)' defined by your app. If so, I don't think that will work. When your app is loaded and linked when it's launched, the category won't be attached to the class 'MyClass' because it doesn't exist. It is only loaded and linked when the plug-in is loaded, but the runtime can't retrospectively attach the category - its opportunity to do so automatically has passed. You might be able to use the low-level runtime methods to attempt to reattach the category after you have loaded the plug-ins. Or it might be better to rethink how you're doing this so it's not so dependent on load order. (Of course, I may have totally misread the situation). --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
