c struct implementation in iOS

SSharedAppState.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

enum {
    SharedCompletedStepNone    = 0,
    SharedCompletedStepOne     = 1 << 0,
    SharedCompletedStepTwo      = 2 << 1,
    SharedCompletedStepThree   = 3 << 2
};
typedef NSUInteger SharedCompletedSteps;

@interface SSharedAppState : NSObject
{
    struct {
        unsigned int sharedCompletedStepMask:3;
    } _appFlags;
}
@property (assign, nonatomic) SharedCompletedSteps sharedCompletedStep;

+(id)sharedInstance;
@end

SSharedAppState.m

#import "SSharedAppState.h"

#pragma mark - C functions


#pragma mark - Interface Extension

typedef struct _appFlags AppFlags;
@interface SSharedAppState ()

@property (unsafe_unretained, nonatomic) AppFlags *appFlags;
-(void *)newAppFlags;
@end

#pragma mark - Implementation

@implementation SSharedAppState

#pragma mark - Iniitalizer

Questions

  1. appFlags = (AppFlags *)newAppFlags();

gives implicit declaration of function newAppFlags is invalid in C99

  1. appFlags->sharedCompletedStepMask = 0; appFlags.sharedCompletedStepMask = 0;

Incomplete definition of type 'struct _appFlags' Member reference type 'AppFlags *' (aka 'struct _appFlags *') is a pointer; maybe you meant to use '->'?

Gives following warnings and error. These is my first time to post questions here so please advice on html or editing. Thankyou!

When you write like this

struct {
    unsigned int sharedCompletedStepMask:3;
} _appFlags;

you are declaring a variable _appFlags of an unnamed struct.

you probably meant

struct _appFlags {
    unsigned int sharedCompletedStepMask:3;
};

or you could write 

typedef struct _appFlags {
    unsigned int sharedCompletedStepMask:3;
} AppFlags;
