i have attempted to follow the advice at SF for turning off objective-C arc per file for one file by placing "-fno-objc-arc" next in the compilation flags for the file in the "Compile Sources" section of my build phases for my project.
this isn't working for me, in that ARC-related errors are still generated.
i see in the log for the file for which i attempted to do this the following warning:
"clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-fno_objc_arc'"
i notice that it shows underscores instead of dashes. when i look at the generated compile line, it also shows underscores instead of dashes.
