Hi Charles,
Thanks for the reply. Well, that's the part I don't get. Isn't the
compiler smart enough to choose the appropriate method based on which
object I am sending the message to? If I am calling a method that is
defined in the class of the object I am sending the message to, why
would the compiler even think that I intend to call a completely
unrelated class's method on my object? How is that even possible if
that is actually what I intended to do?

Hi all,
I found the below thread messages on the
Cocoabuilder site. Please
have a quick look. I understand what YMMV is
saying, but does anyone
know the reason why that warning occurs? Wouldn't
the fact that the
two methods are defined in different classes enough
to allow multiple
methods with the same name and different arguments
to exist?
I think it was explained pretty clearly in that
thread. Yes, the two methods can both exist, but the
compiler does not necessarily know which one you meant
to call at a given point.
Cheers,
Chuck
