Abstract class with single subclass

If I would want to allocate a class which allocates a single subclass instead, to
hide the class implementation details


would this be the correct way of doing it?

The following code would be in the BaseClass

+ (id)allocWithZone:(NSZone*)aZone
{
	if ([[self class] isEqualTo:[BaseClass class]])
	{
		return [[SubClass alloc] init];
	} else {
		return [super allocWithZone: aZone];
	}
}
