best way to "reset" values

Subject: best way to "reset" values

Hi All,

As I grapple with the whole memory management issue, a question I haven't seen explicitly addressed is now to reset ivars to default (empty) values.

As far as I understand, if I use

[self setMyString: @""];

then the @"" is a constant that can never be freed. Or is that OK? (I need to reset the value often, and don't want to leak memory.) Also, is the approach different if the ivar is a collection (set, array, dictionary...)?

Thanks.

Daniel
