Message-ID: <4558@ncar.ucar.edu> Date: 3 Oct 89 17:08:53 GMT Sender: news@ncar.ucar.edu Reply-To: davis@groucho.UCAR.EDU (Glenn P. Davis) Organization: Unidata/UCAR, Boulder CO Lines: 35 Suppose I have an object with another object as instance variable: @interface myObject: Asuperclass { id anotherobject; . . } +new ; -free ; @end I want 'anotherobject' freed at free time. What should my free method look like? I guess: -free { [anotherobject free] ; [super free] ; } This doesn't fail outright, but I wonder if the [super free] is being applied to the current object.
