Adam:

Cocoa containers (like an NSArray and NSMutableArray) require that you add objects, not primitives. If you want to add an integer, create an NSNumber instance like so:

NSNumber * myNumber = [NSNumber numberWithInt:myInt];
[myArray addObject:myNumber];

or for shorthand:

[myArray addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:myInt]];

  Hope this helps.

I am trying to insert an int into an NSMutableArray, but getting an error.

My int is an instance variable of my controller class. I am trying to add the int to an instance variable NSMutableArray of another class (already properly instantiated) through this process

[myObject addItemToArray: myInt];

Which in turn calls this method:
- (void) addItemToArray: (id) newItem
{
  [myArray addObject: newItem];
}

I get the following error in the debugger:

[NSCFArray addObject:]: attempt to insert nil

I know this is some stupid rookie mistake, that I am missing some fundamental understanding here, but could someone be so kind as to point out the flaw of sending an int directly in such a manner?
