serverPort isn't a property, so you have to use

This is how I’m working around the error right now.  Like this I get a compiler warning, method not found, return type defaults to id.  
[self.dataSource serverPort];


Port = (NSUInteger)[self.dataSource serverPort];

This succeeds at runtime, but of course smells, and doesn’t squelch the warning.

If you want it to be a property, make it so

I tried implementing serverPort as a property and I still get the same error

Thanks,
Sandor


@protocol dataSrcProto
@property (readonly) NSUinteger serverPort;
@end
