[SOLVED} Re: Can an object observe itself?

Oops, found my problem... the model class is NSCoding compliant and so objects can also be initialized via -initWithCoder, and I needed to add the observer there as well.

I have a model class with multiple properties. I need to know in a variety of places when certain of these change. Presently, the model objects can be changed by an inspector that has bindings to the model instances, which are managed as a collection by an NSArrayController. So... I tried adding code to the model object to observe itself (on a key that is a dependent key set up with +setKeys:triggerChangeNitificationsForDependentKeys). I was then going to have that observer issue a notification. However, the model's -observeValueForKeyPath:ofObject:change:context: method isn't getting called when I make changes. Thinking the problem was with the dependent key, I changed to observe a specific key. That doesn't work either. So I am wondering if an object can observe itself. I add the observer in the model object's -init method, after invoking -init on the superclass:
