The question is generally coming from self = [super init].

In case if I'm subclassing NSSomething and in my init's method self = [super init] returns object of different class, does it mean I am not able to have my very own ivars in my subclass, just because self will be pointing to different class?

Appreciate if you could bring some examples if my statement is wrong.
