And two processes (client and server if you like) where the protocol
is used via Distributed Objects. The (id) value returned by
createActivity is an internal class to the server that I have no
desire to expose.
setActivity: infoString takes the string and calls an internal method
so :
[activityToken setInfoString:inInfoString];
This works fine - I assume because of the use of proxy objects, since
the value given for the token doesn't match with what was returned
from createActivity
endActivity does:
[activityToken release];
However this doesn't actually lead to dealloc on my underlying object.
I assume I'm really just releasing the proxy and it doesn't forward
the invocation ? I'm sure I don't have any dangling references of my
own making since I've tested this without Distributed Objects and
there are no problems.
Reading the documentation it seems like I need the id return value to
be handled as 'by reference' ? Is that correct ? I don't need the
proxy object - but I can't quite seem to fathom the mechanisms/methods
needed for the by reference to be used and/or the proxy to go away.
Thanks
