Objective-C NSString Reference Types

Question

I have a simple question. If I am declaring NSString (ref type) as shown below:

 NSString *johnsMoney = @\"200\";
    NSString *marysMoney = johnsMoney;

           


        

Answer 1

No. Remember you are dealing with pointers. So when you do

johnsMoney = @"100";

You are setting the johnsMoney pointer to a different memory address which contains the @"100" value. marysMoney still points to the original address with the @"200" value.
