属性值未传递给其他方法

Question

In my header file I declared a new property like this:

@property (weak, nonatomic) NSString *porperty;

In my implementation file I give the property a value:

-method1{
 self.property = someString;
 NSLog(@"property = %@", self.property);
}

The log shows up in the debugger as the same value of someString. Okay great, but when i try to use this property in the next method of the same implemtation file it loses its value.

-method2{
 NSLog(@"property = %@", self.property);
}

Now the debugger says (null).

Simple question. i know but this usually works for me. What am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

This is because someString has been released on next cycle. Replace weak by strong, this will retain your string.

@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *porperty;
