Sure there is. There's a 'self' in every method. It refers to the
receiver of the message that was sent. In instance methods, 'self'
refers to the instance. In class methods, 'self' refers to the class.
Example:
@implementation Foo
+ foo {
NSLog(@"self is %@ (%p) and Foo is %@ (%p)", self, self, [Foo
class], [Foo class]);
}
@end
You'll get the same values for both, since they give you the same thing.
Of course it's the class, not the instance, so the self you have isn't
the self you *wanted* here.
