It's not possible to do this. ObjC will allow you to send any message
to any other object. The best you can do is not publicly expose the
method and that is exactly what the Cocoa framework does. To be
honest, trying to use C++ just for this seems a waste of time; perhaps
you should explain why you want to do this? Is it to try and partition
your code up, is this something that really MUST stop, say, plugins
from accessing the code?

How do I make a method private?
I have tried putting @private before the method that I want to make
private but the compiler flags a parse error. I read the
documentation and I can only find reference to private member
variables. I want to make sure that a method can only be accessed
via another method in the same class. Is this possible in Objective-
C or do I need to write this class in C++?
Many thanks.
Phil.
