Outlet Initialization

When are outlet setting methods, setVariableName:anObject, called?
Aren't they messaged immediately after the nib segment is loaded with
loadNibSegment?

The problem is that I have a module which is not setting the outlets after the
nib segment is loaded. Everything is connected in Interface Builder, any
pointers, suggestions?

Instance Variables Disappearing

In the same object referred to above, my instance variables are disapppearing.
With GDB, I'm able to deterine that they exist (have values) within the method
in which they are set, but everywhere else they are null. How, why is this 
happening?

Thanks in advance!
