Which NSAssertion should I use inside a block?

Question

We cannot use NSAssertion inside blocks because that macro uses self, creating a retain cycle, as commented here: http://www.takingnotes.co/blog/2011/09/27/making-nsassert-play-nice-with-blocks/ My question is, what kind of assertions should I use inside a block?

Answer 1

I generally use NSCAssert() in these cases. It doesn't pass self and is also useful for assertions inside of C functions.
