Don't try to return it but work with 'call by reference' (in stead of call by value).
Note: use also a class and not a primitive type, for example: NSNumber

-performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone:, according to Apple docs, is passed a SEL method that "should not have a significant return value".

I wish it to return a INT and I figure that that qualifies as in- significant. Given that assumption, my real question is how to implement it. I call:

[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector:mySimpleSelector withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];

(int) mySimpleSelector {
	if (whatever) return 0;
	else          return 1;
}

via my call to -performSelectorOnMainThread, just how do I access - mySimpleSelector's returned INT? The simplest answer is to not have a return value at all, but rather store the INTs in a global; but I figure there is no time like the present to learn to solve this problem the right way.
