Re: Zombie tracking....

[Benhur Stein]

Well, you can probably make a category of NSZombie that implements
the methods you want. Any zombied object would execute those methods
instead of their original ones.
Or maybe you could write specific zombies for specific classes, and alter
the code in NSObject where objects are zombified, to change them into
a specific class instead of the generic NSZombie.

Good luck,
Benhur
