The double indirection is necessary in order for the master data pointer
(*data) to progress through the data chunk; since that chunk can hold different
items, I have to decode it on the fly and call the appropriate method that
interprets an appropriate block of data. If I were using a '(double *)data'
instead, I would end up incrementing a local copy, and the main pointer in the
caller method would not be altered. Or am I mistaken?
But, basically you're right about the copy. This might be more canonical:
[foo point:NSMakePoint (* data, * (data + 1))];
* data += dim;
Thanks for pointing me out this, as always, your comments are *really* helpful
