Hi all,

I'm using objective-c++ and I'm having a problem pulling a pointer off
of an NSMutableArray. I show how I'm adding a pointer to the array
below, but after that, I don't think I'm pulling it off correctly.

Any help much appreciated.

--- adding pointer to array

    NSMutableArray *myPatterns;
    NQ::Pattern *pattern = new NQ::Pattern(a, b, c);

    // ...

    [myPatterns addObject:[NSValue valueWithPointer:pattern]];

--- get value off of array

    NSEnumerator *enumerator;
       enumerator = [myPatterns objectEnumerator];

      NQ::Pattern *pattern;

    while (pattern = (NQ::Pattern *) [[myPatterns enumerator]
pointerValue]) {
        NSLog(@"id = %d", pattern->get_id());
    }
