Just a random hypothetical: if one were to add a category on
NSStatusItem and implement -enabled (and have it call through to -
isEnabled), would that enable dot-syntax for the enabled property?
Why would you do that rather than using properties directly?
@interface NSStatusItem (PropertySupport)
@property (getter=isEnabled) BOOL enabled;
@end
Err, why not? Whatever gets the job done :)
Because you're needlessly adding another method call and hiding
information.
Anyway, this looks like a good solution. Why didn't you suggest this
in the beginning?
See Ali's reply.
