I load a few variables in my appdelegate class. They are declared in my .h file.

I have a global.h file that declares the same vars as extern, such as:

appdelegate.h

NSString *DBName;

global.h

extern NSString *DBName;

I haven’t found the pattern yet, but some of the classes I include the global.h but the var is nil.

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

EDIT:

It looks like the vars that are like:

int x;

stick and are available,
but the vars that are pointers get lost:

NSString *Name;

They are all loaded initially from a DB in the appdelegate.

I also tried declaring

char Name[30];

then assigning it and all is good.

Now what?

    Problem was the NSStrings were not retained. @xianritchie suggested this in the comment above. I changed the few global strings I have an now all is good.

    Thanks all for the help
