In general you shouldn't return a retained object (unless it's temporarily retained and will be autoreleased of course). If you are routinely doing this then your design is flawed. The reason it's hard to signal to the compiler that you're returning a retained object is that you shouldn't be doing it. When you have to do it, use the word 'new' in the method. > Unless there is another prefix to use, they I am going to continue ignore it > too! Again, no offence intended but when a person doesn't follow a rule because they think it doesn't apply to them, it's just a sign of inexperience and/or lack of understanding. Sorry, but there it is. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
