Question

Objective-C, xCode for iOS

In a class, I want to assign a singleton integer’s value. Right now I have:

[ExGlobal sharedMySingleton].tetraCountEx = tetraCount;

I’ve got this warning before, and have been able to resolve it, but this seems like I would have to do something different by letting the compiler know that tetraCountEx is an integer. I just don’t know how.

Answer 1

That error is a result of trying to store a number as a pointer. With out you posting any code as to how tetraCountEX is declared I can only guess what your problem is.

On reason may be that tetraCountEx is defined as an NSNumber and if that is the case use

[ExGlobal sharedMySingleton].tetraCountEx = [NSNumber numberWithInt:tetraCount];
//or numberWithInteger: or the appropriate type

And the other reason may be accidentally declaring tetraCountEx as a pointer

//Remove the * if this is the case
@property(nonatomic, assign) int *tetraCountEx;
