Lately, I've started to see accessors of the following sort:
- (NSString *)foo
{
return [[foo retain] autorelease];
}
I believe this is in case of something like this:
NSString *myFoo = [myObject foo];
// ... stuff that causes myObject to be deallocated ...
NSLog(@"%@", myFoo); // <--- myFoo might be invalid
I definitely saw this pattern mentioned before GC, so it doesn't have
to do with that.
