Hello again,
In C/C++ and the .NET languages I am used to, I have generally
tried to prefix any member variables inside class methods with "this"
i.e. this.m_sMyString = "this is my string";
In Objective-C, this doesn't seem as clear to me (or at least it
doesn't compile). For example:
- (id)initWithString:(NSString *) string {
self.myString = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:string];
}
Produces an error:
error: request for member 'myString' in something not a structure
or union
I am sure this is something very simple and basic I am missing, but
any assistance is appreciated.
The short answer is: self is a pointer.
The longer answer is a question: Why do you do this? Do your naming
conventions not make clear that something is an instance variable?
