objective c - How to @synthesize a C-Style array of pointers? -

i have property defined in class so:

@interface myclass  uiimageview *drawimage[4]; ... @property (nonatomic, retain) uiimageview **drawimage; ... @synthesize drawimage; // fails compile 

i have found similar questions on stackoverflow , elsewhere, none address issue. objective-c kosher way this?

you can't; have change retain assign , handle memory management yourself; can't send -[retain] uiimageview ** (as isn't object.)

that say; can't use @synthesize lead epic memory leaks assign , doesn't work retain or copy; need implement -drawimage , -setdrawimage: , write accessor code.

but don't that. use nsarray.
