<h4 class="subsection">8.9.1 Using Fast Enumeration</h4>
<p>GNU Objective-C provides support for the fast enumeration syntax:
<pre class="smallexample"> id array = ...;
id object;
for (object in array)
{
/* Do something with 'object' */
}
</pre>
<p><code>array</code> needs to be an Objective-C object (usually a collection
object, for example an array, a dictionary or a set) which implements
the &ldquo;Fast Enumeration Protocol&rdquo; (see below). If you are using a
Foundation library such as GNUstep Base or Apple Cocoa Foundation, all
collection objects in the library implement this protocol and can be
used in this way.
<p>The code above would iterate over all objects in <code>array</code>. For
each of them, it assigns it to <code>object</code>, then executes the
<code>Do something with 'object'</code> statements.
<p>Here is a fully worked-out example using a Foundation library (which
provides the implementation of <code>NSArray</code>, <code>NSString</code> and
<code>NSLog</code>):
<pre class="smallexample"> NSArray *array = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"1", @"2", @"3", nil];
NSString *object;
for (object in array)
NSLog (@"Iterating over %@", object);
</pre>
