Re: call BOOL valued method from performSelector

what the return value of
[myObj performSelector:@selector(aBoolValuedMethod)]
and how to convert it back to BOOL

When I do
BOOL yn = (BOOL)[myObj performSelector:@selector(aBoolValuedMethod)];

The compilor says "cast from pointer to integer of different size" 

From objc.h:

	objc.h:typedef signed char              BOOL;

BOOL is a signed char, so you can't simply typecast a pointer; the char is 8 bits, and the pointer 32 (for now).

From the docs for -performSelector:

"For methods that return anything other than an object, use NSInvocation."
