Struct objc::declare::ClassDecl[][src]

pub struct ClassDecl { /* fields omitted */ }

A type for declaring a new class and adding new methods and ivars to it before registering it.

Methods

impl ClassDecl
[src]

Constructs a ClassDecl with the given name and superclass. Returns None if the class couldn't be allocated.

Constructs a ClassDecl declaring a new root class with the given name. Returns None if the class couldn't be allocated.

An implementation for +initialize must also be given; the runtime calls this method for all classes, so it must be defined on root classes.

Note that implementing a root class is not a simple endeavor. For example, your class probably cannot be passed to Cocoa code unless the entire NSObject protocol is implemented. Functionality it expects, like implementations of -retain and -release used by ARC, will not be present otherwise.

Adds a method with the given name and implementation to self. Panics if the method wasn't sucessfully added or if the selector and function take different numbers of arguments. Unsafe because the caller must ensure that the types match those that are expected when the method is invoked from Objective-C.

Unsafe because the caller must ensure that the types match those that are expected when the method is invoked from Objective-C.

Adds an ivar with type T and the provided name to self. Panics if the ivar wasn't successfully added.

Adds a protocol to self. Panics if the protocol wasn't successfully added

Registers self, consuming it and returning a reference to the newly registered Class.
