Re: NSLogging a memory address

Ok, but wouldn't

NSLog(@"%@<%x>", object, object);

also work?

Indeed. The original &object was the address of the address of the object, rather than the address of the object.

BTW, it'd be a *very* good idea to use "%p" instead of "%x", since that will make your application portable to a 64-bit address space when Apple get around to defining the ABI for 64-bit apps on the G5. If you use "%x" for a pointer, you're quite likely to break (if Apple chooses the LP64 model that most people are expecting)... "%lx" will probably work, but better to use "%p" as that is what it's there for.

Kind regards,

Alastair.
