On the other hand, the following construct is one I use very often in Cocoa:

while( myStr = [myEnum nextObject] )
{
// do whatever
}

That would generate a warning, would it not? And I would have to manually
disable that warning.

Out of the box, gcc with Project Builder used to warn about this, if I remember correctly. Now that I check, it doesn't seem to do it anymore, which is unfortunate. (If you add -Wall to your compiler flags, you will get a warning: "suggest parentheses around assignment used as truth value".)

To avoid the warning, put an extra pair of parens around the expression. That is:

while ((myStr = [myEnum nextObject]))

This is a pretty well known idiom. (Like all idioms, it doesn't necessarily make much sense all by itself, though.)
