Question

I’m trying to make app with ios5 and i’m really confused why happen this. Could someone help me an explain me why have error in lines when appear &error

Passing address of non-local object to __autoreleasing parameter for write-back

The below call cause the error

// note the following method returns _inStream and _outStream with a retain count that the caller must eventually release

if (![netService getInputStream:&_inStream outputStream:&_outStream]) {

 NSLog(@"error in get input and output streams");
 return;
}

my class .h

NSInputStream      *_inStream;
NSOutputStream     *_outStream;

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSInputStream *_inStream;    
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSOutputStream *_outStream;

my class .m

@synthesize _inStream;
@synthesize _outStream;

The getInputStream is a NSNetService class method

Please the NSNetService class getInputStream implementation below

/* Retrieves streams from the NSNetService instance. The instance's delegate methods are not called. Returns YES if the streams requested are created successfully. Returns NO if or any reason the stream could not be created. If only one stream is desired, pass NULL for the address of the other stream. The streams that are created are not open, and are not scheduled in any run loop for any mode.
*/
- (BOOL)getInputStream:(NSInputStream **)inputStream outputStream:(NSOutputStream **)outputStream;

I have found the solution

Here we go. Create the variables as local and assign them back to the original. Thanks to @borreden for the insightful info.

Here is my latest code.

NSInputStream  *tempInput  = nil;
NSOutputStream *tempOutput = nil;

// note the following method returns _inStream and _outStream with a retain count that the caller must eventually release
if (![netService getInputStream:&tempInput outputStream:&tempOutput]) {

    NSLog(@"error in get input and output streams");
    return;
}
_inStream  = tempInput;
_outStream = tempOutput;
