Best Way to Implement Private Methods in Objective-C

Since the iPhone SDK came out, I've been using the following syntax in my Objective-C implementation file (the .m) to implement private methods:

@interface ClassName (Private)

    - (void)privateMethod;

@end

@implementation ClassName

- (void)privateMethod {
    //keep this private
}

@end	

This style just creates a Category for your class that's not in the header, so other classes can't read it. Turns out there was an even better way introduced in the Objective-C 2.0 spec using Extensions, which are like anonymous categories, but the improvement is the implementation must exist in the main implementation block for the class. Here's the example re-written:

@interface ClassName ()
	- (void)privateMethod;
@end

@implementation ClassName
    - (void)privateMethod {
        //keep this private
    }
@end

Not much has changed, instead of decorating your category with a name, (Private), you just put empty parenthesis, ().

Once I switched over the iTimeZone code base, realized I was carrying some dead weight method declarations, so win!

Here's Apple's documentation.
