C, and by extension Objective-C, do not have references in the C++ sense. You'll have to pass a pointer to the thing that you want your method to be able to modify.

Hi,
I have the following in my .m file:


- (UInt32)traverseTreeStraightReturnedDirection:(int&)treeDirection returnedTreeDepth:(int&)treeDepth returnedKey:(HPlusCatalogKey&)catKey lookForKey:(HPlusCatalogKey)lastKey { // code here }

But the error when compiling is "parse error before & token".
Is passing by reference not allowed or is there any other syntax that I should follow?


Thanks,
Nick
