You can use the NSNumber class (http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSNumber_Class/Reference/Reference.html), and initialize it with the numberWithInt method.

@Itamar's answer is sufficient, but I'm just simplifying it.

Try this,

NSNumber *your_object = [NSNumber numberWithInt:int_value];

So now int_value is converted into object.
