You're overriding the method, so it is up to you to implement the copying behaviour.

Greetings.

This is probably a stupid question.

if i have a property declared as
@property (readwrite, copy) NSString *name;

if I override the -(void) setName(NSString*)value{}

The object that I get as value is it already a copy?

Will the object still copy if I just
instanceVariable = value;

or do I have to
instanceVariable = [value copy];

Thank you!

Sandro Noel.
