I have talked with Don an maybe we could make my NewApInspector available as an example app for the swapKit and the File Object.
I might send you the source if you like to take a look at it.
- renameTo: should be not necessary because setNAme: does the same. Maybe you could make it the other way round. Let MiscFile be a subclass of dragablleGraphNode ??
It's like the IconKits IKFolder then. And people could make the MiscFile a subclass of IKFolder if they would prefer that implementation for some reason....(and you could test your object with the IconKit before writing all that Graph stuff.)
Maybe you should ask Scott if he doesn't mind 'copieing' his design to that extend. But we shouldn't compete with his drag&drop stuff
But I see that this take s up more memory when you are only dealing with files. But imagin that you start writing other dragable objects that are no real files...you would have to dupplicate the Icon-stuff.
Well putting -access, -lock and other UNIX related File behavior into a category could be useful. Maybe those methods might change with a OOFS :-) Who knows what Enterprise objects might bring.

P.S: Looks like this is the first time the world will see two implementations of the same object-_type_
