The second is retained. The first is not. The first is a constant
string and, thus, -retain/-release is a no-op. An implementation
detail to ignore:
foo = [@"" retain];
2. If I have an NSObject class and I define an init messge, do I have
to do self = [super init] or is that not important when extending from
NSObject.
Yes, it is important.
But it does next to nothing.
For now. Someday, that might change.
