Yes, you can do this, because ARC is a compile-time option and files are compiled individually.

To compile with ARC, you'll need to use the -fobjc-arc flag.

I've been able to do that with properties and other Obj-C 2.0 stuff very successfully, but it wasn't clear that ARC could be managed the same way. If it can be done, how is ARC enabled for a specific class?
