Hi, Alan. Sorry to hear about your negative experiences, but anyway,
here's what you'll need to do:
A category *cannot* add onto an existing method; it can only replace
it. If you wish to extend the initializer, you will need to make a
subclass instead.
Hope that this helps. Cheers!
Regards,
Andrew

Hi everyone,
I'm making a category on a class and want to add onto the classes
designated initializer method.
I tried overriding it but then I can't use something like this:
if (self = [self init...)
Because that would create an endless loop.
My guess is that this is "basic" and that all of you will flip out on
me, saying I should RTFM or that I lack the basic knowledge and would
"benefit" from reading up on my Obj-C. Well, if I knew where to look
for the answer to this I wouldn't be asking here and, isn't the point
of this list to get help?
I apologize for that but I had to get it out of my system, I've had
some bad experiences here recently.
Peace, Alan
