your own array class, potentially as a subclass of NSArray (or NSMutableArray).

Is it really such a good idea to tell a newbie to attempt to create subclasses of a class cluster? ;-)

Even if NSArray were a regular class I personally would use a wrapper class rather than a subclass, because I don't want that class's interface to include NSArray baggage that isn't relevant to my needs. For example, I don't want to have to figure out the semantics of -arrayByAddingObject: in my new class. It gets hairier if I subclass NSMutableArray.


I think it's better we wait for Anoop to tell us what he's going to use it for. I have a hunch that there might be an altogether different solution for this problem.

You're probably right, but what the heck, I chimed in anyway. :)
