Well, a category can't define its own instance variables. So if one of your categories needs an instance variable, you need to declare that waaay over in the main header file for that class.


It's a con around which you can work, but it definitely makes thinking about what to extract from the file more interesting.


the typical way around this is to actually declare _everything_ in the main MyClass.h file.. variables, defines, method names, everything. then just put the implementation into multiple .m files (I like MyClass+CategoryName.m)
