With ARC why use @properties anymore?
- by trapper
In non-ARC code retained properties handily take care of memory management for you using the self.property = syntax, so we were taught to use them for practically everything.
But now with ARC this memory management is no longer an issue, so does the reason for using properties evaporate? is there still any good reason (obviously other than providing public access to instance variables) to use properties anymore?
