Thanks Greg! This really clears up a lot! And also thanks about clarifying the bit about the objc->ivar syntax. Seems I jumped to conclusions when I accidentally tried to access another object's ivar that way.

Personally I think you're doing a great job with the GC, Dispatch and Blocks support! These are extremely exciting times to be a Mac developer and I am glad I made the switch.

Keep it up :)

André

(If you use the OSAtomic functions directly with GC-scanned storage, then you can confuse the garbage collector which may delete your objects unexpectedly.)


`obj->ivar` is perfectly legal, as long as you respect the ivar's access permissions. You won't get a warning if you access the class's own @private ivars, or its superclass's @protected ivars, or any other class's @package or @public ivars.
