Bruno, > @property (nonatomic, retain) dispatch_queue_t *dispatchQueue;
Let's assume for a second that this worked. Since dispatch_queue_t is already typedef'd as a pointer "typedef struct dispatch_queue_s *dispatch_queue_t;". You've declared the property as a pointer to a pointer, which means that he would have to dereference that pointer in his class that has the property, every time he uses it. Secondly, dispatch_queue_t doesn't subclass NSObject, or implement the NSObject protocol, and therefore doesn't implement the -[retain] message. The auto-generated getter and setter would crash. -Jamie EDIT: re-sent to list.
