I have a property defined in a class like so:

@interface myClass

UIImageView *drawImage[4];
...
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIImageView **drawImage;
...
@synthesize drawImage; // This fails to compile

I have found similar questions on StackOverflow and elsewhere, but none that really address this issue. What is the most Objective-C kosher way to do this?
