Hello,

This code is given in the "Transitioning to ARC Release Notes" as an example of accomodating blocks in an ARC environment:

__block MyViewController *myController = [[MyViewController alloc] init…];
// ...
myController.completionHandler =  ^(NSInteger result) {
    [myController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
    myController = nil;
};

Supposedly this avoids a retain cycle. But where is the cycle? At least two objects are needed for a cycle. What is the second one?
Excuse me if I'm being dumb.

Jan E.
