I'm assuming that these will change, but should not be changed by the user, correct?

It seems to me that you'd want to avoid compiling them into your classes using #define, I think a property list included as bundle resource is the way to go.

I started programming with Cocoa recently. Created an application
which makes REST calls and displays the response values in a simple
window. For each particular REST function I have a corresponding class
which defines functionality for constructing a proper URL needed to
call a function, initiating the call and informing the interested
delegate object once the REST response is received.

Right now I have the host part of the url hardcoded in each class that
represents a different REST function call. I know I should store it in
one place, not sure what's the recommended "place" in cocoa apps. I
was thinking maybe one class with #defines and then all the REST
representing classes would include that? Also I see some docs
mentioning plist setting files, could that be a better place? Based on
my environment (debug, testing, prod) this url will change as well.

Thanks for any recommendations,
