Whoops...you're 100% right. I found an article talking about it and it had mentioned it was a private method. It must have been a typo. I should have been convinced otherwise after reading the documentation but I blame sleep deprivation!

Thanks again dejo.

As an answer to the generic question though I would say it's highly undesirable to do so for a couple of reasons:

1) Apple may choose to make the method public in future
2) Apple will, most likely, reject your app for using private methods as they scan for the method name

Thanks robbieduncan, that was the general feeling I was getting. Fortunately for me that the method I needed was actually public, because there is no other way to do what I wanted to do.

Thanks both of you,
Darthtroll
