/// Define methods on an external class.
///
/// This is a convenience macro to generate associated functions and methods
/// that delegate to [`msg_send!`].
///
/// [`msg_send!`]: crate::msg_send
///
///
/// # Specification
///
/// Within the `impl` block you can define two types of functions without
/// bodies; ["associated functions"] and ["methods"]. These are then mapped to
/// the Objective-C equivalents "class methods" and "instance methods", and an
/// appropriate body is created for you. In particular, if you use `self` or
/// the special name `this` (or `_this`), your method will assumed to be an
/// instance method, and if you don't it will be assumed to be a class method.
///
/// If you specify a function/method with a body, the macro will output it
/// unchanged.
///
/// The name of the function will be used for the resulting function that the
/// user will use to access the functionality, but is otherwise not used by
/// the macro.
///
/// If you use `objc2::MainThreadMarker` as a parameter type, the macro will
/// ignore it, allowing you to neatly specify "this method must be run on the
/// main thread". Note that due to type-system limitations, this is currently
/// a textual match on `MainThreadMarker`; so you must use that exact
/// identifier.
///
/// ["associated functions"]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/associated-items.html#methods
/// ["methods"]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/associated-items.html#methods
///
///
/// ## Attributes
///
/// You can add most normal attributes to the methods, including
/// `#[cfg(...)]`, `#[allow(...)]`, `#[deprecated = ...]` and doc comments.
///
/// Exceptions and special attributes are noted below.
///
///
/// ### `#[unsafe(method(...))]` (required)
///
/// Specify the desired selector using this attribute.
///
/// If the selector ends with "_", as in `#[unsafe(method(my:error:_))]`, the
/// method is assumed to take an implicit `NSError**` parameter, which is
/// automatically converted to a [`Result`]. See the error section in
/// [`msg_send!`] for details.
///
///
/// ### `#[unsafe(method_family = ...)]` (optional)
///
/// The Cocoa memory management convention is figured out automatically based
/// on the name of the selector, but it can be overwritten with this `unsafe`
/// attribute.
///
/// This is commonly done in framework crates to improve compile-time
/// performance, as the logic to determine the family automatically can be
/// quite taxing at scale. That said, you should rarely need to use this
/// yourself.
///
/// The valid family names are:
/// - `alloc`.
/// - `new`.
/// - `init`.
/// - `copy`.
/// - `mutableCopy`.
///
/// As well as the special `none` family that opts-out of being in a family.
///
/// This corresponds to the `__attribute__((objc_method_family(family)))` C
/// attribute, see [Clang's documentation][clang-method-families].
///
/// [clang-method-families]: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#method-families
///
///
/// #### Safety
///
/// You must ensure that the specified method family is correct.
///
///
/// ### `#[cfg_attr(..., ...)]`
///
/// This is only supported for attributes that apply to the method itself
/// (i.e. not supported for attributes that apply to any of the custom
/// attributes, due to implementation difficulty).
///
///
/// # Safety
///
/// You must ensure that any methods you declare with the
/// `#[unsafe(method(...))]` attribute upholds the safety guarantees described
/// in the [`msg_send!`] macro, _or_ are marked `unsafe`.
///
///
/// # Examples
///
/// Let's create a quick custom class:
///
/// ```
/// use objc2::encode::{Encode, Encoding};
/// use objc2::ffi::NSUInteger;
/// use objc2::rc::{Allocated, Retained};
/// use objc2::runtime::NSObject;
/// use objc2::{define_class, extern_methods};
///
/// // Shim
/// type NSError = NSObject;
///
/// define_class!(
/// // SAFETY:
/// // - The superclass NSObject does not have any subclassing requirements.
/// // - `MyObject` does not implement `Drop`.
/// #[unsafe(super(NSObject))]
/// pub struct MyObject;
///
/// impl MyObject {
/// // ... Assume we've implemented all the methods used below
/// }
/// );
///
/// /// Creation methods.
/// impl MyObject {
/// extern_methods!(
/// // SAFETY: The method is correctly specified.
/// #[unsafe(method(new))]
/// pub fn new() -> Retained<Self>;
///
/// // SAFETY: The method is correctly specified.
/// #[unsafe(method(initWithVal:))]
/// // arbitrary self types are not stable, but we can work around it
/// // with the special name `this`.
/// pub fn init(this: Allocated<Self>, val: usize) -> Retained<Self>;
/// );
/// }
///
/// /// Instance accessor methods.
/// impl MyObject {
/// extern_methods!(
/// // SAFETY: The method is correctly specified.
/// #[unsafe(method(foo))]
/// pub fn foo(&self) -> NSUInteger;
///
/// // SAFETY: The method is correctly specified.
/// #[unsafe(method(fooObject))]
/// pub fn foo_object(&self) -> Retained<NSObject>;
///
/// // SAFETY: The method is correctly specified.
/// #[unsafe(method(withError:_))]
/// // Since the selector specifies "_", the return type is assumed to
/// // be `Result`.
/// pub fn with_error(&self) -> Result<(), Retained<NSError>>;
/// );
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The `extern_methods!` then expands to (roughly):
///
/// ```
/// # use objc2::encode::{Encode, Encoding};
/// # use objc2::ffi::NSUInteger;
/// # use objc2::rc::{Allocated, Retained};
/// # use objc2::runtime::NSObject;
/// # use objc2::{define_class, extern_methods, ClassType};
/// #
/// # // Shim
/// # type NSError = NSObject;
/// #
/// # define_class!(
/// # #[unsafe(super(NSObject))]
/// # pub struct MyObject;
/// #
/// # impl MyObject {
/// # // ... Assume we've implemented all the methods used below
/// # }
/// # );
/// #
/// use objc2::msg_send;
///
/// /// Creation methods.
/// impl MyObject {
/// pub fn new() -> Retained<Self> {
/// unsafe { msg_send![Self::class(), new] }
/// }
///
/// pub fn init(this: Allocated<Self>, val: usize) -> Retained<Self> {
/// unsafe { msg_send![this, initWithVal: val] }
/// }
/// }
///
/// /// Instance accessor methods.
/// impl MyObject {
/// pub fn foo(&self) -> NSUInteger {
/// unsafe { msg_send![self, foo] }
/// }
///
/// pub fn foo_object(&self) -> Retained<NSObject> {
/// unsafe { msg_send![self, fooObject] }
/// }
///
/// // Since the selector specifies one more argument than we
/// // have, the return type is assumed to be `Result`.
/// pub fn with_error(&self) -> Result<(), Retained<NSError>> {
/// unsafe { msg_send![self, withError: _] }
/// }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// See the source code of `objc2-foundation` for many more examples.
