Hey all,
I'm of the mindset that one should try to get rid of all warnings that
show up when compiling a program, which is why I'm asking this. I use
an NSTimer in my application, set up like this in an awakeFromNib:
NSTimer *statusTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval: 5.0
target:self selector:@selector(checkStatus) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
When I compile, the only warning I get is "unused variable
'statusTimer'." However, my timer works just fine, no problems at all.
Is there something I should/could do to get rid of the warning, or is
it harmless?
If you don't use the variable statusTimer, then why declare it? Just
write
[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval: 5.0 target:self
selector:@selector(checkStatus) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
instead. There's no need to put the result into a variable if you
aren't going to use it.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
