Is there a way to implement that methodology as well?


I believe the problem here is just that the dot operator has higher precedence than the typecast operator --- so that your expression gets parsed as if it were (anEntity *)(someObject.attribute) = ... It should work if you add parentheses to make it explicit that the typecast applies to the 'someObject' part of the expression instead of to the whole 'someObject.attribute' part:

  ((anEntity*)someObject).attribute = @"somevalue";
