Sorry if this is naïve but I have a quick follow up q (to verify that I am understanding ObjC correctly). Is it true that:
The two styles seem to me to have slightly different execution paths. The first: [self.fieldArray addObject:inFoo] Would actually invoke the property accessor fieldArray and then send the message addObject: to the returned result, i.e. Its equivalent to: [[self getfieldArray] addObject:inFoo] While the second form [fieldArray addObject:inFoo] would directly use the member variable. So if you (for some reason) chose to have a more complicated accessor that is not simply backed by an ivar, the former may have some potential side effects, yes?
