Daniel, thank you!
initWithFile is calling [self init] not [super init]
if ((self = [self init])) {
I am doing it backwards :S

Hi Sandro - what you're discovering on your own is exactly the
phenomenon covered by Apple's documentation of the "designated
initializer":
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/
CocoaFundamentals/CocoaObjects/chapter_3_section_6.html#//apple_ref/
doc/uid/TP40002974-CH4-SW3
It's OK for you to have more than one initializer (e.g.
initWithFile:) but you generally have a single designated
initializer through which all other initializers will call. In your
case, "init" is the designated initializer, so any other
initializers in your class will call through to it *instead* of
super. The designated initializer is the point at which the
superclass init is incorporated into the class.

Greetings.
Another one,
when i create a class,
I override the init like this,...
- (id) init{
if ((self = [super init])) {// superclass may return nil
// do init code here.
}
return self;
}
but what if i want to init with a file's content,
I still want to call the init method, for my normal init code to run.
so would this be a good way of doing it ?
of am i over/miss doing it again ....
- (id) initWithFile:(NSString *) path{
if ((self = [self init])) {
[self loadFile:path];
}
return self;
}
again thank you and please forgive, if my questions seem very
beginner type :)
Sandro Noel.
