Oh and would it be absolutely wise for me to retain the input value
just in case
it is already auto-released somewhere else? and release it before the
function ends?

Greetings,
i was just wondering if Cocoa behaved like other languages
concerning variable scope.
i did search the documentation for variable scope but all i get
back is the references for Apple Scripts ...
so... in this function.
+ (NSString *)numberFizzle: (NSNumber *) input{
NSString *intToStr = [ [ [NSString alloc] stringWithFormat:@"%d",
[input intValue]] autorelease];
NSString *tempStr = [ [ [NSString alloc] stringWithFormat:@"i%d:%
d", [intToStr length], [input intValue]] autorelease];
NSLog(tempStr);
return tempStr;
}
so if Objective-C (cocoa) behaves like i think. there is no need
for me to autorealease anything that does not exit my function.
so fo example here, the intToStr variable will be automatically
killed at the end of the function
so i would not have to autorelease it... BUT tempStr will exit the
function therefor i should autorelease it just in case it is not
released by the user...
is that right ?
Thank you for your assistance !
Sandro Noel.
