RE: outlet initialization

I am new to Cocoa. I plan to use "awakeFromNib" to set my outlet init value
after the nib is loaded. Is that a good idea?

If use the "set<ivar>" mechanism, where should this method be implemented?
in the controller that the outlet is connected to? And when will this method
be called?

Thanks.

If there's a method named set<ivarname>, it will be used. Otherwise,
the ivar is set directly.
