problem disabling a menu item

Hi,

I am not getting the expected behavior when I try to disable a menu item programmatically in a simple application. I do

  [[NSApp mainMenu] setAutoenablesItems:NO];
  [_someMenuItem setEnabled:NO];

yet the _someMenuItem remains enabled. I tried sending a setTitle: message to _someMenuItem (just to make sure that the connection was right) and it worked as described. So I think I am missing something here, any suggestions?

On a more general level, I did read about the "Automatic Menu Enabling" alternative method in Apple's documentation. Is Automatic the preferred way to handle all menu enable/disable activity?

Thanks,

-- ivan
