No, I don't.  I know *exactly* how Objective-C works and what it is. 
Your repeated assertion to the contrary, like much of the rest of your 
posts on this topic, couldn't be more wrong.

I don't think arguing further with you on-list will be productive, and 
more to the point it will annoy other list members.

Kind regards,

Alastair.
