This is an example:

NSValue* value;
unsigned size;
void* buffer;

// ...
value = [anObject aValue];
// ...

// I don't know the type and the size
// of the data that
// NSValue store at this time

// the next method getValueSize
// don't exist
// ??? size = [value getValueSize]; ???
buffer = malloc( size );
[value getValue:buffer];

// I don't want to pass NSValue directly
// here ...
doSomeThingsWithThisPointer( buffer );

free( buffer );

// ...

How I can obtain programmatically the size of the data stored in a NSValue object?

Sorry for my buggy english

Off the top of my head:

Code:
unsigned size;
char *type = [value objCType];
NSGetSizeAndAlignment(type, &size, NULL);
