@property and automatic synthesis of getters and setters.

Xcode 4.6.2 Lion 10.7.5
Programming with Objective-C seems to indicate I can do this:
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#import "Cell.h"  //My sub-class

@interface Document : NSDocument
@property Cell *protoCell;
@end

and  this (i.e. no need to @synthesize):

@implementation Document
- (id)init
{
    self = [super init];
    if (self) {
        protoCell = [[Cell alloc]init];
        // Add your subclass-specific initialization here.
    }
    return self;
}
……
@end

but the compiler tells me
Use of undeclared identifier 'protoCell'; did you mean '_protoCell'?

If I do refer to the ivar using the internal reserved form _protoCell
the compiler is happy.

What is my lack of understanding? Why am I not allowed to use
the getter protoCell as indicated in the documentation?

TIA

Peter
