warning: assignment from distinct Objective-C type


  • Subject: warning: assignment from distinct Objective-C type
  • From: Stuart Malin <email@hidden>

I have a line of code: 

xmppStream = [[XMPPStream alloc] initWithDelegate:self];

That when compiled, receives a warning:

warning: assignment from distinct Objective-C type

Now, what's odd to me, is if I change the source code to this:

xmppStream = [XMPPStream alloc];
[xmppStream initWithDelegate:self];

It compiles without any warning.

The interface for the XMPPStream initializer is:

- (XMPPStream*) initWithDelegate:(id)initialDelegate;

And, in the file that is allocating and initializing, the xmppStream variable is defined as:

XMPPStream *xmppStream;

So I don't see any reason that I should get the warning.
Any clues about why this happens would be appreciated.
I'm sure I must be overlooking something obvious...

This is happening with Xcode 2.4.1

[I have posted to both Cocoa and Xcode because I have no idea which list would be better for this]
