在 iOS中可以直接调用某个对象的消息方式有两种:
一种是performSelector:withObject;
再一种就是NSInvocation。
第一种方式比较简单,能完成简单的调用。但是对于>2个的参数或者有返回值的处理,那就需要做些额外工作才能搞定。那么在这种情况下,我们就可以使用NSInvocation来进行这些相对复杂的操作。
main.h
1 | #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> |
2 | #import "MyClass.h" |
3 | |
4 | int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) |
5 | { |
6 | |
7 | NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; |
8 | |
9 | MyClass *myClass = [[MyClass alloc] init]; |
10 | NSString *myString = @"My string"; |
11 | |
12 | //普通调用 |
13 | NSString *normalInvokeString = [myClass appendMyString:myString]; |
14 | NSLog(@"The normal invoke string is: %@", normalInvokeString); |
15 | |
16 | //NSInvocation调用 |
17 | SEL mySelector = @selector(appendMyString:); |
18 | NSMethodSignature * sig = [[myClass class] |
19 | instanceMethodSignatureForSelector: mySelector]; |
20 | |
21 | NSInvocation * myInvocation = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature: sig]; |
22 | [myInvocation setTarget: myClass]; |
23 | [myInvocation setSelector: mySelector]; |
24 | |
25 | [myInvocation setArgument: &myString atIndex: 2]; |
26 | |
27 | NSString * result = nil; |
28 | [myInvocation retainArguments]; |
29 | [myInvocation invoke]; |
30 | [myInvocation getReturnValue: &result]; |
31 | NSLog(@"The NSInvocation invoke string is: %@", result); |
32 | |
33 | [myClass release]; |
34 | |
35 | [pool drain]; |
36 | return 0; |
37 | } |
MyClass.h
1 | #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> |
2 | |
3 | |
4 | @interface MyClass : NSObject { |
5 | } |
6 | |
7 | - (NSString *)appendMyString:(NSString *)string; |
8 | |
9 | @end |
MyClass.m
1 | #import "MyClass.h" |
2 | |
3 | |
4 | @implementation MyClass |
5 | |
6 | - (id)init |
7 | { |
8 | self = [super init]; |
9 | if (self) { |
10 | // Initialization code here. |
11 | } |
12 | |
13 | return self; |
14 | } |
15 | |
16 | - (NSString *)appendMyString:(NSString *)string |
17 | { |
18 | NSString *mString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ after append method", string]; |
19 | |
20 | return mString; |
21 | } |
22 | |
23 | - (void)dealloc |
24 | { |
25 | [super dealloc]; |
26 | } |
27 | |
28 | @end |
这里说明一下[myInvocation setArgument: &myString atIndex: 2];为什么index从2开始 ,原因为:0 1 两个参数已经被target 和selector占用。
