Question

So when creating an own class it’s quite common to have an id ivar that usually acts as a unique identifier. But since in Objective-C there exists the id type this creates confusion for the compiler when I declare my ivar as int id;

So how do you declare your ivar pertaining to hold ids?

Answer 1

Just rename the ivar:

int identifier;
int uniqueIdentifier;
int ident;

And the list goes on…
