对象在运行时获取其类型的能力称为内省。内省可以有多种方法实现。
判断对象类型
-(BOOL) isKindOfClass: classObj判断是否是这个类或者这个类的子类的实例
-(BOOL) isMemberOfClass: classObj 判断是否是这个类的实例
ps：本篇新建的类主要用于熟悉本篇内容设计，未考虑内存管理因素。
我们试试这两个方法的使用。
1、新建Person类继承NSObject,新建Teacher类继承Person
[cpp]view plaincopy
#import
@interface Person : NSObject
{
NSString *name;
}
-(void)setName:(NSString*)n;
@end
[cpp]view plaincopy
#import "Person.h"
@implementation Person
-(void)setName:(NSString *)n
{
name = n;
}
@end
[cpp]view plaincopy
#import "Person.h"
@interface Teacher : Person
-(void)teach;
@end
[cpp]view plaincopy
#import "Teacher.h"
@implementation Teacher
-(void)teach
{
NSLog(@"我教数学");
}
@end
[cpp]view plaincopy
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
Person *person = [[Person alloc] init];
Teacher *teacher = [[Teacher alloc] init];
//YES
if([teacher isMemberOfClass:[Teacherclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher Teacher类的成员");
}
//NO
if([teacher isMemberOfClass:[Personclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher Person类的成员");
}
//NO
if([teacher isMemberOfClass:[NSObjectclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher NSObject类的成员");
}
[person release];
[teacher release];
[pool release];
打印结果：
2012-07-04 14:23:07.965 ObjectiveCTest[2460:f803] teacher Teacher类的成员
只有第一个判断打印出来，isMemberOfClass判断是否是属于这类的实例，是否跟父类有关系他不管。
[cpp]view plaincopy
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
Person *person = [[Person alloc] init];
Teacher *teacher = [[Teacher alloc] init];
//YES
if([teacher isKindOfClass:[Teacherclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher 是 Teacher类或Teacher的子类");
}
//YES
if([teacher isKindOfClass:[Personclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher 是 Person类或Person的子类");
}
//YES
if([teacher isKindOfClass:[NSObjectclass]]) {
NSLog(@"teacher 是 NSObject类或NSObject的子类");
}
[person release];
[teacher release];
[pool release];
2012-07-04 14:34:17.315 ObjectiveCTest[2595:f803] teacher是Teacher类或Teacher的子类
2012-07-04 14:34:17.316 ObjectiveCTest[2595:f803] teacher是Person类或Person的子类
2012-07-04 14:34:17.316 ObjectiveCTest[2595:f803] teacher是NSObject类或NSObject的子类
三个结果都打印出来了。
-(BOOL) respondsToSelector: selector判读实例是否有这样方法
+(BOOL) instancesRespondToSelector: 判断类是否有这个方法。此方法是类方法，不能用在类的对象
这里不写对象的创建和释放了，参考上面的代码
[cpp]view plaincopy
// YES
if( [teacher respondsToSelector: @selector( setName: )] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"teacher responds to setSize: method");
}
// NO
if( [teacher respondsToSelector: @selector( abcde )] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"teacher responds to nonExistant method");
}
// YES
if( [teacher respondsToSelector: @selector( alloc )] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"teacher class responds to alloc method\n");
}
打印结果：
2012-07-04 14:39:49.853 ObjectiveCTest[2723:f803] teacher responds to setSize: method
2012-07-04 14:39:49.854 ObjectiveCTest[2723:f803] teacher class responds to alloc method
中间的那个判断我随便写了个selector,当然没有了。respondsToSelector 检查类方法 alloc返回YES
2.2 instancesRespondToSelector
[cpp]view plaincopy
// NO
if( [Person instancesRespondToSelector: @selector(teach)] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"Person instance responds to teach method");
}
// YES
if( [Teacher instancesRespondToSelector: @selector(teach)] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"Teacher instance responds to teach method");
}
// YES
if( [Teacher instancesRespondToSelector: @selector(setName:)] == YES ) {
NSLog(@"Teacher instance responds to setName: method");
}
打印结果：
[cpp]view plaincopy
2012-07-04 14:52:29.378 ObjectiveCTest[2961:f803] Teacher instance responds to teach method

C++ 使用的是强类型：对象必须符合其类型，否则不能通过编译。在 Objective-C 中，id类型类似于(void*) ,可以指向任何类的实例。而不需要强制转换。
下面看看使用，
先把Teacher类中的 teach方法修改一下，改成
-(void)teach
{
NSLog(@"%@教数学",name);
}
然后实现并调用
[cpp]view plaincopy
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
Person *person = [[Person alloc] init];
Teacher *teacher = [[Teacher alloc] init];
id p = person;
id t = teacher;
[t setName:@"张三老师"];
[t teach];
[person release];
[teacher release];
[pool release];
打印结果：
[cpp]view plaincopy
