Private Properties in Objective-C

I’m an avid fan of properties and I’m using them as often as possible. Recently someone asked me how I deal with private variables. The answer is: a private property.

Yozora color theme for Xcode4 Yozora is a custom .dvtcolortheme I created for Xcode4. Yozora is the Japanese word for night sky. This theme is based upon the popular Monokai theme for Textmate.

I recently forked BWToolKit to make it conform with the Mac App Store guidelines. The current version comes with an element called BWTokenField, which uses NSTokenAttachmentCell and this is private API. In other words: using BWToolKit in your App will result in MAS rejections.
