Typo — TextMrker should be TextMarker

Typo here in TextMarker.

Never need autorelease when passing a value to a method, only when returning. Wastefully puts an object into the autorelease pool. Instead this should use get() and bridge_cast. You can probably find an example by searching for bridge_cast.

Set back to review? by accident.

Thanks Darin. Tried that but getting error: no matching function for call to 'bridge_cast'
        [change setObject:bridge_cast(marker.get()) forKey:NSAccessibilityTextChangeValueStartMarker];

Maybe because AXTextMarkerRef is an opaque pointer?


Can get it to compile with:

        [change setObject:(__bridge id)(marker.get()) forKey:NSAccessibilityTextChangeValueStartMarker];

which perhaps is the right thing in this case.

Great as is. To make code like this look more elegant and perhaps be more type safe we also have bridge_id_cast for cases where there is not an Objective-C equivalent. Or if there is an Objective-C toll free bridged version of AXTextMarkerRef, we could add it to the toll free bridging header and then use bridge_cast. But none of that is required, this is fine.
