create an Object and NIL value

Image
By User



I am used to have this in my code





myClass.h







@property ( strong, nonatomic ) ClassA *varA







myClass.m







varA  = [[ClassA alloc] init];

if ( varA isEqual:nil )

   NSLog@"var A is nil");

else

   NSLog@"var A is not nil");







this is a result from console







var A is not nil







I thought var A should be nil then. So my question is what does blue line do and why var A is not nil after all

    You just allocated varA, then you have a ClassA object, you didn't release it or setting it to nil, so why did you expect it to be nil?

    It's normal behaviour, it's like you just made (alloc) yourself a nice cup of coffee, if you didn't drink/throw (release or setting it to nil) your coffee should still be there, right?

    So, nope the nil value is gone right after you allocate the object in a memory space, also you set the values of the ivars to something in the calling for the init method in which you probably call a [super init]; or something similar so you can get the features of the father object.

    Hopefully this answers your question.

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.
