4,596 PointsBlogPost troubles
I am putting a convenience constructor in my code and when i put it in, the convenience constructor said that blogPostWith title was not declared. then it says that the other method, bp, had a expected expression
BlogPost *bp = [[BlogPost alloc] initWithTitle:@"some title"];
bp.author = @"Author";
BlogPost *bp1 = [BlogPost blogPostWithTitle:@"another title"];
bp1.author = @"Amit";
in my.m file where blogPostWithTitle was declared, i will put the code below
+(id)blogPostWithTitle:(NSString *)title {
return [[self alloc] initWithTitle:title];
}
help please!

42,016 Pointsdid you add the method headers to your .h file so that they are visible to other classes?

4,065 PointsI believe you simply forgot to create an instance of it in the "BlogPost.h" class.
If you only set up blogpost.m to contain the - (id) ______ stuff then you won't have initialized it correctly.
You have to have in BlogPost.h - (id) initWithTitle:(NSString *)title;
and BlogPost.m
-
(id) initWithTitle:(NSString *) title {
self = [super init]; if (self) { self.title = title;
} return self; }
