I wouldn't have said anything, but non-devs always have the right to point out Cocoa syntax errors of devs

Sad to see you go bgannin, just wondering will this slow the development of Adium, and are there any plans to hall in a new developer?

This won't slow Adium in any way, shape or form. Adium is a volunteer project, not a job, so you don't 'hall' people in, they volunteer time and changes as they see fit. Thus I'll still contribute when I have time, otherwise not. As to any slack... there's not any... because there aren't timelines.

[and any projects I would/was/am working on stay safely in brain or on my comp. until they actually get done]
Primary development on Adium is handled by Evan and Adam, the lead developers.

That should be ...
Code: Select all
#define bgannin [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ a$$hole dev %@", @"reformed, @"on a new project"];
And don't forget to retain him.

Much better, Durandal

and there shouldn't be a semi-colon at the end either, right? Since it's a preprocessor define, not a standalone statement.

Actually, Durandal is missing a " for closing the 2nd string, thus it wouldn't work. Retaining is not applicable - the frameworks by default give you an autoreleased item.
Better:
#define bgannin [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ a$$hole dev %@", @"reformed", @"on a new project"]

Yeah, so couldn't you retain it, so that when it's autoreleased, its retain count is 1 (rather than 0), and thus it isn't dealloc'ed?

If it's never dealloc'ed you are leaking. If you receive an autoreleased item within your pool the only reason to retain is if you alloc within a method and need it to last longer than the scope of method's pool.
