There is a fourth option which is that you implement your own enumerator. Something like this would do:

<code snipped>

That's an excellent solution, Chris. It has the advantage that it's a drop-in replacement for NSEnumerator in my code. It has the disadvantage that it's just a layer of abstraction over objectAtIndex:, so it would be slower than the built-in NSEnumerator. But it's worth profiling to see just home much slower.

If the code Chris gave is too slow, you could:

1. Change it to get an IMP for -objectAtIndex:, then re-test.

2. Change it to use CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(), then re-test.

One or other of these should make it (a little bit) faster.

(Oh, also, the -init method Chris wrote is slightly wrong... it *should* read:

  - (MemoryEfficientEnumerator *)initWithArray:(NSArray *)anArray
  {
    if ((self = [super init])) {
      numObjects = [anArray count];
      array = [anArray retain];
    }

    return self;
  }

but you probably spotted that already :-) A hazard of typing code in Mail.app, I'm sure [perhaps there should be a mail plug-in for compiling simple test programs to make sure they work :-D])

Kind regards,

Alastair.
