Just to clear things, up the IB Runtime in the AppKit doesn't actually use keyvalue coding (this could be considered a bug).

But if the outlet is called _foo

it will look for a method called

set_foo:

before trying to just set the instance variable directly.

sorry, I meant it was a bug in your code, not Apple's. it's caught me many times, like why is this outlet nil?!?!?

I usually append the type, so setYourOutletString: or something like that.

do you happen to have methods called setYourOutlet: (for an outlet called yourOutlet)

if so, those are getting called to set the outlets and it's not actually setting them. It's a nasty bug and really frustrating.


Oh, yeah, I didn't even think of that! NSKeyValueCoding at work! Of course it's my fault, and unless you are referring to something else, it is not a bug -- the setXXX methods never set the outlets, that's not what they are for -- they set stuff in NSUserDefaults. Doh! What da heck should I call those methods, I wonder?

Thanks!
