implicit conversion of an indirect pointer to an objective-c pointer with ARC

Image
By User



I'm Working on a project that uses ARC and I am having trouble with an existing piece of code that I already had.





heres the code:







- (id)initWithError:(NSError **)error

{

    if ((self = [super init]))

    {

        errorPointer =  error; //Getting error here

    }



    return self;

}







Im getting an error that says:







implicit conversion of an indirect pointer to an objective-c pointer to 'NSError' is disallowed with ARC.







What should I do to fix this problem? I've tried doing a bridged cast, but didn't work. Any help is appreciated.





Oh and just for clarification, in the .h file this is how I declared the variable errorPointer:







NSError *errorPointer;







Thanks!

    It should be

    errorPointer = *error; // no error here


    The two variables differ by a level of indirection (simply speaking, the number of stars in their declaration is not the same). You need to add an * in front of the error to offset the extra * of the errorPointer.

    errorPointer and error have mismatched types.

    Based on the code you have there, it seems like your error argument should just be declared as NSError *.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

By User
I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

By User
Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
