I want to set ivar using -> operator

Question

I want to set ivar using -> operator. I got an error: Interface type cannot be statically allocated. I don't want dot operator.

 @interface Dream : NSObject

 @property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL isBeer;

 @end

Class ViewController

 - (void)viewDidLoad
{
 [super viewDidLoad];

  Dream dr1;
  (&dr1)->isBear = YES;
 }

Answer 1

You need to make the instance variable public:

@interface Dream : NSObject
{
@public
    BOOL isBeer;
}
@end

Class ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    Dream *dr1 = [[Dream alloc] init];
    dr1->isBeer = YES;
}
