I agree with the general sentiment, but you're not free from all memory management. If I've never learned about it, how do I know when to make something strong

I agree with the general sentiment, but you're not free from all memory management. If I've never learned about it, how do I know when to make something strong vs weak? How about bridging from CF types?
ARC is a step in the right direction, but it doesn't free newcomers from ever learning about memory management.
- commanda 15y agoApple's ARC documentation explains how to deal with those kinds of things. It's as accessible to an iOS beginner as retain/release are, perhaps more so. Specifically, regarding strong vs weak, the point is that you are to think about your object graph instead of thinking about memory management.
