Hi, I am thinking about using nested functions in Objective-C, and I have read that one is not supposed to call them after the enclosing function has exited. Now, this makes perfect sense if the nested function references local variables from the enclosing function, since their lifetime has expired. I was wondering though if this restriction applies also to the receiver (and its variables). The receiver is very likely to be still alive long after any one of its particular methods has exited. Can somebody please tell me if the receiver is indeed accessed differently (in a nested function) than through the activation record for the enclosing function call, meaning that one could call a nested function even after the enclosing function has exited if the nested function only references the receiver? Thank you, Florin
