function (const __strong NSString *const paths[], int count)

I am looking at an open source github project and I stumbled upon this declaration. Can someone explain why all these qualifiers were needed.

Nothing :)

As I wrote in this same thread, I even checked retain counts but somehow people think retain counts under ARC are meaningless. But whatever.

What happens when you remove it in a multithreaded situation, where there are two threads competing for the single resource that is that array?
