objective c - What is the (id) mean in the init method? -


possible duplicate:
what meaning of id?

i newbie ios programming.

i saw following declaration

- (id)init

what (id) mean here?

id denotes type compatible object. notation

- (id)init

means init instance method of class; typically it's used initialize instantiated object after memory allocation (usually done using alloc). in objective-c, methods' return type declared putting type in parentheses before method name. so, here means init method may return objective-c object.

but should really, google objetive-c tutorial , read it. such fundamental thing there no excuse not reading tutorial or other documentation.

c++ - Accessing inactive union member and undefined behavior? -

i under impression accessing union member other last 1 set ub, can't seem find solid reference (other answers claiming it's ub without support standard). so, undefined behavior? the confusion c explicitly permits type-punning through union, whereas c++ ( c++11 ) has no such permission. c11 6.5.2.3 structure , union members 95) if member used read contents of union object not same member last used store value in object, appropriate part of object representation of value reinterpreted object representation in new type described in 6.2.6 (a process called ‘‘type punning’’). might trap representation. the situation c++: c++11 9.5 unions [class.union] in union, @ 1 of non-static data members can active @ time, is, value of @ 1 of non-static data members can stored in union @ time. c++ later has language permitting use of unions containing struct s common initial sequences; doesn't permit type-punning. to determine whether union type-punning is allowe...

JAVA - what is the difference between void and boolean methods? -

i new java. writing wrapper-library in java make functions available in basic-like language. i got stock @ point when noted code not executed in java-library although compiler did not complain (using eclipse). resolved replacing code follows: public void videoquality(int vquality) //did not work into public boolean videoquality(int vquality) //works here complete code-snippets: public void videoquality(int vquality) //did not work {if (vquality==16) { vidquality=16; } else if (vquality==-16) { vidquality=-16; } else if (vquality==0) { vidquality=0; } else vidquality=-16; vitamioext.setvideoquality(vidquality); } public boolean videoquality(int vquality) //works {if (vquality==16) { vidquality=16; } else if (vquality==-16) { vidquality=-16; } else if (vquality==0) { vidquality=0; } else vidquality=-16; vitamioext.setvideoquality(vidquality); return true; } i think void corresponds sub in visual basic while boolean corresponds function. i found odd following code worked using...
