How can it be a root class? Every ObjC object must be based on the root class NSObject (ultimately). In Interface Builder, you add a new subclass of NSObject by dragging the NSObject to the IB document window, then you change the class Identity to your own name. That's what the default AppDelegate class looks like. The documentation states (as it should) that this "provides an instance of an NSObject subclass that is not avaialable in IB, [which] you can use [to] create instances of your own classes."

If I add an NSViewController to my document window and change it's class identity to myViewController, then myViewController is a subclass of NSViewController. Same thing for NSObject as described above.

I can't understand why you would have to set the parent to NSObject. That seems scary to me. And buggy.

Takaaki's change probably makes more sense, though. At the moment it looks
like that file is another root class -- is that really a good idea?
