[Link] Using delayed messages in Cocoa/Objective-C

Just thought I'd quickly post this while coding tonight. If you haven't seen Scott Stevensons Blog Theocacao you should as he posts a lot of great tips. Recently he posted about using delayed messages in Cocoa, specifically within the context of awakeFromNib methods (though this can be used anywhere) which is called right after all the contents of the nib are loaded off of disk or at least that's how it's supposed to work. Sometimes awakeFromNib is called when the contents of nibs aren't truly 100% loaded so therefore the need to delay a method execution can be helpful. In my experience this is rare (at least on my PowerBook G4) though it can happen. At the very least it could help you in the future. Take a look at his post. Using Delayed Messages in Cocoa
