Question

In my instance method, would like to compare a BOOL parameter with the content of a static variable, for instance:

- (NSArray*)myMethod:(NSString*)someString actualValuesOnly:(BOOL)actualValuesOnly {
static NSString *prevSsomeString;
static BOOL prevActualValuesOnly;
static NSArray *prevResults

if ([someString isEqualToString:prevSomeString] && 
              ([actualValuesOnly isEqual: prevActualValuesOnly]) 
               // HOW TO COMPARE THESE TWO BOOLEANS CORRECTLY?? 
    { return prevResults; }// parameters have not changed, return previous results 
else { } // do calculations and store parameters and results for future comparisons)

What would be the correct way to do this?

Answer 1

Since BOOL is a primitive (or scalar) type, and not a class, you can compare it directly with ==

if ([someString isEqualToString:prevSomeString] && actualValuesOnly == prevActualValuesOnly)
