how to use delegates with Automatic Reference Coun

问题:

I've jumped on the ARC bandwagon. In the past I would have my delegate properties declared like this:

@property(assign) id<MyProtocol> delegate;

So I thought I would do this under ARC:

@property(weak) id<MyProtocol> delegate;

Not so. On the @synthesize statement in the .m I have a compile error:

*Semantic Issue: Existing ivar 'delegate' for __weak property 'delegate' must be __weak*

I HAVE declared it as weak though! Also how do I pass a class implementing a protocol to a weakly referenced property. Do I have to wrap it in one of those weird obj_unretained calls?

Any help on this would be very much appreciated.

"ivar" means "instance variable", which you have not shown. I'm betting it looks something like this:

@interface Foo : NSObject {
    id delegate;
}

@property (weak) id delegate;

What the error is saying is that it must look like this:

@interface Foo : NSObject {
    __weak id delegate;
}

@property (weak) id delegate;

If the property claims to be weak, the ivar that the value ends up being stored in must be weak as well.
