相信很多人都已经知道了他们三者的关系了, 下面借用一张图

我们先来动态创建一个类
//动态创建一个新类
- (void)createNewClass{
Class newClass = [self createNewClass:"SubError"];
//创建这个类的实例对象
id instance = [[newClass alloc] initWithDomain:@"some domain" code:0 userInfo:nil];
//调用方法
SEL sel = NSSelectorFromString(@"TestMetaClass"); // 获取定义的方法
//这里报错, Build Setting -> apple clang preprocessing -> Enable Strict Checking of objc_msgSend Calls 设置成NO
id result = objc_msgSend(instance,sel); //调用该方法
}
//创建的这个类继承于NSError
- (Class)createNewClass:(char *)className{
//创建一个NSError的子类 SubError
Class newClass = objc_allocateClassPair([NSError class], className, 0);
//添加实例对象方法 IMP函数指针
SEL sel = sel_registerName("TestMetaClass"); //注册一个方法选择器 不能重复注册同一个选择器
class_addMethod(newClass, sel, (IMP)TestMetaClass, "v@:");
//注册这个类
objc_registerClassPair(newClass);
return newClass;
}
//实例对象、类、元类等的关系
void TestMetaClass(id self, SEL _cmd) {
[self setValue:@"zhang" forKey:@"name"];
NSLog(@"This objcet is %p", self); // TestClass类的实例对象
//获取类的名称
const char *className1 = class_getName([self class]);
const char *className2 = object_getClassName([self class]);
NSString *className3 = NSStringFromClass([self class]);
NSLog(@"ClassName is %s, %s, %@", className1, className2, className3);
//获取类
Class class1 = [self class];//调用实例对象的方法
Class class2 = object_getClass(self);//根据实例对象获取类
Class class3 = objc_getClass(className1);//根据类名获取类
NSLog(@"Class is %p, %p, %p", class1, class2, class3);
//父类
Class superClass1 = class_getSuperclass(class1);
Class superClass2 = [self superclass];
NSLog(@"SupperClass is %p, %p", superClass1, superClass2);
//获取元类
Class metaClass = objc_getMetaClass(className1);
//判断是否为元类
BOOL isMetaClass = class_isMetaClass(metaClass);
if (isMetaClass) {
NSLog(@"%@ is meta class", metaClass);
}
NSLog(@"NSError's metaClass is %@", objc_getMetaClass(object_getClassName([NSError class])));
NSLog(@"NSError's metaClass is %p", objc_getMetaClass(object_getClassName([NSError class])));
NSLog(@"Class is %@, super class is %@, meta class is %@, metaclass's superclass is %@", [self class], [self superclass], metaClass, class_getSuperclass(metaClass));
NSLog(@"Class is %p, super class is %p, meta class is %p, metaclass's superclass is %p", [self class], [self superclass], metaClass, class_getSuperclass(metaClass));
//获取实例的大小
size_t size = class_getInstanceSize(class1);
NSLog(@"%zu",size);
}
忽略其他的日志输出

这个instance是SubError类的实例对象, SubError类的父类是NSError, SubError类的元类是SubError, NSError类的元类是NSError, SubError元类的父类是NSError元类,具体的你要理解isa指针, 下面我们再来看NSObject
我们先来一组错误的案例
NSLog(@"NSObject's class is %p", [NSObject class]);
NSLog(@"NSObject's meta class is %p", objc_getClass((__bridge void *)[NSObject class]));
NSLog(@"NSObject's class is %p", objc_getClass("NSObject"));//object_getClassName([NSObject class])
NSLog(@"NSObject's meta class is %p", objc_getMetaClass("NSObject"));
2019-05-22 09:52:42.129790+0800 RuntimeDemo[1114:23535] NSObject's class is 0x10f389ec8
2019-05-22 09:52:42.129895+0800 RuntimeDemo[1114:23535] NSObject's meta class is 0x0
2019-05-22 09:52:42.129971+0800 RuntimeDemo[1114:23535] NSObject's class is 0x10f389ec8
2019-05-22 09:52:42.130053+0800 RuntimeDemo[1114:23535] NSObject's meta class is 0x10f389e78
网上有好多博客是这么说明NSObject自身和元类的关系的, 但是你仔细看输出结果的第二句和第四句, 打印的地址不一致, 而且他们认为objc_getClass这个方法返回的是元类, 是不是元类可以用系统的方法来判断, 下面来看一下我的做法
NSObject *obj = [[NSObject alloc] init];
NSLog(@"instance is %p", obj);
Class objClass = [obj class];
const char *className = class_getName([obj class]);
Class objSuperClass = class_getSuperclass(objClass);
Class metaClass = objc_getMetaClass(className);
if (class_isMetaClass(metaClass)) {
NSLog(@"%@ is meta class, %p", metaClass, metaClass);
}
NSLog(@"MetaClass name is %s", class_getName(metaClass));
NSLog(@"Class is %p, super class is %p, meta class is %p, metaclass's superclass is %p", objClass, objSuperClass, metaClass, class_getSuperclass(metaClass));
2019-05-22 10:10:23.803262+0800 RuntimeDemo[1313:32937] instance is 0x600003384370
2019-05-22 10:10:23.803389+0800 RuntimeDemo[1313:32937] NSObject is meta class, 0x1095dde78
2019-05-22 10:10:23.803447+0800 RuntimeDemo[1313:32937] MetaClass name is NSObject
2019-05-22 10:10:23.803519+0800 RuntimeDemo[1313:32937] Class is 0x1095ddec8, super class is 0x0, meta class is 0x1095dde78, metaclass's superclass is 0x1095ddec8
从打印输出的结果可以看出, 使用class_getMetaClass方法可以可以获取到元类, NSObject的父类是nil, 元类是NSObject元类, NSObject元类的父类是NSObject自身, 这样就符合上图的指向逻辑了, 最后形成了一个闭环
这里我们可以猜测(__bridge void *)的作用并不是像别人说的(类型转换 转换成id), 而是转换成了(void *)空指针类型也就是nil
