But right you most definitely are .. it fails in exactly that way. If I change the property type to a non-object type (I used NSUInteger) and look at the stack trace where KVC is getting the value it's like this _NSGetUnsignedIntValueWithMethod _NSGetUsingKeyValueGetter ... so yes it seems key value coding code looks at the type of the return and calls a method for that particular type. void*s seem to be beyond it and that counts as an undefined key. A note in the documentation about types it can't convert and return might be helpful here. I looked at the return type of the getter method and it's "^v", that's pointer to void is it not? I suppose it would be hard for the runtime to do anything sensible with that generically so it doesn't. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
