Block implicitly retains 'self'; explicitly mention 'self' to indicate this is intended behavior

Question

Given the following:

- (void) someMethod
{
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        myTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval: 60

Recently I faced the same issue and @Vasily Bodnarchuk answer seems to be helpful.

However in Continuous integration environments its not possible to change the CLANG_WARN_OBJC_IMPLICIT_RETAIN_SELF flag to NO at run time. So in order to isolate the issue i tried by checking all the dependent GEMS installed by Cocoapods and figured out that gem XCODEPROJ version 1.5.7 sets the CLANG_WARN_OBJC_IMPLICIT_RETAIN_SELF to YES whenever pod install command is executed. The solution for this is reverting the XCODEPROJ to earlier version 1.5.1 by executing sudo gem install xcodeproj -v 1.5.1 Once reverted just execute pod install and the flag will be set to NO always.
