    when i use [temp retain] does the counter of the members also retain?

    No.

    lets say that i got ref of the class from some method and i want to retain the class do i need to retain each member?

    No.

    The members’ lifetime should be managed by the Foo class itself, not the user of the Foo class. If you can/need to change the retain count of the members, the class is not properly encapsulated.
