I just spent the last half hour studying this and wrote my own concise legal opinion arguing why GCUndoManager is OK. Now having read Graham’s post, it’s probably redundant. But I’m posting it here anyhow in case I or anyone else ever needs it :)
Although -[NSUndoManager _processEndOfEventNotification:] is a non-public API, -[GCUndoManager _processEndOfEventNotification:] is NOT a non-public API. As a matter of fact, it is not even an Apple API! It’s the same as if I defined a class CorePerformer and innocently named a method -[CorePerformer _corePerformAction]. There also happens to be an Apple non-public method -[NSMenuItem _corePerformAction]. Certainly my definition should not result in an app store rejection.
