You'd have won the bet.
For some reason I had a placed a NSString instead of a DBNNote into the array; probably for debugging purposes...
Thanks a million, I had zero chaces of tracing this bug by myself, for I thought the description was the appropriate one...
I owe you a pint,
Davide

I'd bet the firstNote object is not a "DBNNote" instance but an NSString instance.

Hello folks.
I receive an exception message and my application exits whenever I try
to access properties or methods of an instance of DBNNote, a custo
made class.
Here is the code:


DBNNote *firstNote= [[tune body] objectAtIndex:0];
NSLog(@"%@", firstNote);
NSLog(@"%@", [firstNote accident]);

And this is the exception:

The Debugger has exited due to signal 5 (SIGTRAP).The Debugger has

As you see the first line of the exception message correctly logs [firstNote description]. The second NSLog should print "flat". So it appears the object is correctly instantiated, yet I cannot access its methods. I have tried to call both methods and properties accessors, but no call works so far. I have a feeling I am making a very basic mistake, but I can't tell which one. Any suggestion? Davide _______________________________________________
