return value of a method

Question

I have a method that returns a NSMutableArray.. I am calling this method from another class and I would like to know how to put the returning NSMutableArray into a receiving object thats in the class thats called it.

myClass.m

- (NSMutableArray *)getMutableArray
{
    // Do some stuff

    return myMutableArray
}

mycallingClass.m

- (void)getMeMyMutableArray {

  // not really sure what to do here.. but something like.....

  // initialize class
  myClass *mc = [[myClass alloc] init];

  // call myClass method
  [mc getMutableArray]; // how do I get the returning value into a mutableArray in this class?
}

Hopefully this makes sense.. Any help would be appreciated

Answer 1

NSMutableArray *myArray = [myClass getMutableArray];
