Using Garbage Collection (Cross Language)

• Tommy Nordgren Using Garbage Collection (Cross Language) Feb 20 2008, 22:07
  How can I be sure that references to Objective C classes are not
  collected prematurely in
  cross language development?
  
  typedef struct listelem {
  struct listelem * next;
  id data;
  };
  
  class MyClass {
  id somedata;
  public:
  MyClass(id dat): somedata(dat) {};
  
  };
  
  etc ...

  CFRetain and CFRelease. CFRetain works like -retain
  under reference counting, and it effectively makes the
  object a root under GC.
