Hey Amin -
It's a compatibility feature that, I believe, dates from before the
existence of IBOutlet. All id typed ivars without a leading underscore
are available as outlets. There are similar rules for actions. I
For example, IB will treat any method with a single id typed argument
named 'sender' as an action.

Hi
before I report this, I want to check, whether I misunderstood
something.
I've a window controller subclass with three outlets. Additional the
class owns to ivars, one of them typed id. These ivars are not
marked as outlet.
@interface GroupsWC : NSWindowController {
IBOutlet NSArrayController* personsController;
IBOutlet NSArrayController* groupsController;
IBOutlet NSOutlineView* sidebarView;
NSIndexSet* selectionIndexes;
id selectedGroup;
}
In the IB3 I see the ivar typed id and can connect it. Is this the
intended behaviour? (I accidentally connected this "outlet" to a
view.)
