... Let's not confuse this with TTW public methods. _setObject should obviously not be made TTW accessible (let alone TTW public :-), but it should be a "public" method, that is, have a sensible name and be specified in an eventual IObjectManager interface I think an additional reason for the "_" in the name of "_setObject" is to prevent acquisition.

With acquisition, you may not set the object where you think you will. Dieter
