Question

I want to give a parameter with an NSTimer.
timertocallguest is an NSTimer made in the .h;

timertocallguest=[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1  target:self selector:@selector(gettheguestyouaskedforTOTURNON) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

How can i pass parameters with the selector?
At some selectors i could add withObject behind it to give parameters with it..
but i cant do it here, i just want to give an NSIndexPath with the function that i call.

Could annyone help me with this?
Ty already,

Your call is lacking the colon after the selectors name. It should read like this:

timertocallguest=[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1  target:self selector:@selector(gettheguestyouaskedforTOTURNON:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

If Xcode suggested the selector without the colon though, make sure the method you’re trying to call actually takes an argument (of type id or NSIndexPath*).

Edit in response to comment:

The object (in this case myObject) needs to be passed in as the userInfo, like so:

timertocallguest=[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1  target:self selector:@selector(gettheguestyouaskedforTOTURNON:) userInfo:myOject repeats:YES];
