This block is probably causing some corruption.  You're assigning 123
to a uchar pointer and not the uchar, then passing the address of a
pointer to a method that tries to printout the pointer as an int
rather than the intended uchar value.

Yes thanks.
That was careless of me.
And I had made the problem statement far too long for the actual problem to stand out.


It was that this:

- (void) callPrintConstFloat:(id)pId {
[pId printFloat:98.76]; // pId is object of class AnonTargetClass
}


causes this method in object of class AnonTargetClass

- (void) printFloat:(float)pF {
	NSLog(@" %6.3f",pF);
}

to print
-151996493463552.000

even though
	AnonTargetClass *atcObj	= [[AnonTargetClass alloc] init];
	[atcObj printFloat:98.76];

prints
 98.760

Here's the full mainline and results

#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#import "AnonTargetClass.h"
#import "CallingClass.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	AnonTargetClass	* atcObj = [[AnonTargetClass alloc]init];
	CallingClass	* callingObj   = [[CallingClass alloc]init];

	[callingObj callPrintConstFloat:atcObj];
	[atcObj printFloat:98.76];

}
