Maybe your class should be the subclass of the super-super class instead of its current superclass?


Unfortunately, no. My first thought was exactly the same - perhaps the design was wrong.. but in this case, the class is most definitely appropriately a child of its superclass, there's just this one method where the behavior needs to be totally different, but I still need the functionality that the grandparent object (a non-concrete class that is the root of my framework's heirarchy) provides. =(

Hmm, maybe you could make the grandparent's method look like this:

- (someType)someMethodWithArgument:(someOtherType)someArgument {
return [someOtherMethodWithArgument:someArgument];
}

The parent class could override this, and the grandchild class could override that and call someOtherMethodWithArgument: .

Just a thought, don't know how good it is...
