Discussion Character
- Technical explanation
- Debate/contested
Main Points Raised
- One participant reports encountering errors: "Expected identifier or '('" and "Missing '@end'" despite having '@end' in their code.
- Another participant suggests that there may be missing closing square brackets in the code, which could be causing the errors.
- A third participant expresses frustration that previous suggestions did not resolve the issues.
- One participant requests that the original poster share their code as text instead of a screenshot to provide better context for troubleshooting.
- This participant also notes that there are missing square brackets in the reported lines and questions whether certain lines of code are correctly placed within function definitions.
- They advise the original poster to take time to learn the basics of Objective-C, particularly regarding function definitions and the use of square brackets.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants express differing views on the root causes of the errors, with some focusing on syntax issues while others suggest a lack of understanding of fundamental concepts in Objective-C. No consensus is reached on a specific solution to the problems presented.
Contextual Notes
There are indications of missing context due to the format of the code shared (screenshot vs. text), which may limit the ability to diagnose the issues accurately. Additionally, there are unresolved questions about the structure of the code and the placement of certain lines within function definitions.
