Title Body

Is each value of a typedef enum treated as an int ? E.g., given the following typedef enum : // UIView.h typedef enum { UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut, UIViewAnimationCurveEaseIn, UIViewAnimationCurveEaseOut, UIViewAnimationCurveLinear } UIViewAnimationCurve; How do I know which method to use to create an NSNumber ? + (NSNumber *)numberWithShort:(short)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithUnsignedShort:(unsigned short)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithInt:(int)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithUnsignedInt:(unsigned int)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithLong:(long)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithUnsignedLong:(unsigned long)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithLongLong:(long long)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithUnsignedLongLong:(unsigned long long)value; + (NSNumber *)numberWithInteger:(NSInteger)value NS_AVAILABLE(10_5, 2_0); + (NSNumber *)numberWithUnsignedInteger:(NSUInteger)value NS_AVAILABLE(10_5, 2_0); I think +[NSNumber numberWithInt:] is the correct method to use because the accepted answer to Best way to implement Enums with Core Data uses it. E.g.: [NSNumber numberWithInt:UIViewAnimationCurveLinear] But, if +[NSNumber numberWithInt:] is correct, then why? For a bitwise enum , e.g.: enum { UIViewAutoresizingNone = 0, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin = 1 << 0, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth = 1 << 1, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin = 1 << 2, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin = 1 << 3, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight = 1 << 4, UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin = 1 << 5 }; typedef NSUInteger UIViewAutoresizing; I'm guessing that +[NSNumb
