Good practice for disambiguating argument names versus instance variable names in Objective-C

Question

I run into a fairly common scenario in Objective-C where I pass in a variable to an init method and then want to assign it to an instance variable of the same name. However

Answer 1

If you use only 1 the compiler will give you a warning.

You can combine 1 & 2 by using :

@synthesize value = _value;

If you want to hide your variable from the inheritors you can declare a empty named category and declare your property there.

For 3 you can use aValue for your argument.
