It'd be better to do the read in the read method, and just do any
additional initialization you need to with
initWithContentsOfFile:ofType:. It gives you the opportunity of doing
anything special for a particular file type, but it's not a
replacement for loading the data...
My "problem" is actually to differentiate between a new untitled
document and a document read from disk.
Currently init is called in both cases -- so I need to act as if the
document was untitled and then undo that in the following read method
(if one is sent). And that is what I wanted to avoid (for various
reasons).
However, reading the conceptual documentation, it would seem that
setting a boolean value in an overloaded initWithContentsOfFile:ofType:
(before calling super) is also a way for me to learn in which context
the init method is called -- not that I am a fan of this solution, but
I think I'll try that for now ;)
Thanks for the help.
