Struct CWWiFiClient

Source
#[repr(C)]
pub struct CWWiFiClient { /* private fields */ }
Available on crate feature CWWiFiClient only.
Expand description

The interface to the Wi-Fi subsystem on OS X.

Provides access to all Wi-Fi interfaces and allows Wi-Fi clients to setup event notifications.

CWWiFiClient objects are heavy objects, therefore, clients of the CoreWLAN framework should use a single, long-running instance rather than creating several short-lived instances. For convenience, +[CWWiFiClient sharedWiFiClient] can be used to return a singleton instance.

The CWWiFiClient object should be used to instantiate CWInterface objects rather than using a CWInterface initializer directly.

Implementations§

Source§

impl CWWiFiClient

Source

pub unsafe fn delegate(&self) -> Option<Retained<AnyObject>>

Sets the delegate to the specified object, which may implement CWWiFiEventDelegate protocol for Wi-Fi event handling.

Clients may register for specific Wi-Fi events using -[CWWiFiClient startMonitoringEventWithType:error:].

Source

pub unsafe fn setDelegate(&self, delegate: Option<&AnyObject>)

This is a weak property. Setter for delegate.

Source

pub unsafe fn sharedWiFiClient() -> Retained<CWWiFiClient>

Returns the shared CWWiFiClient instance. There is a single shared instance per process.

Source

pub unsafe fn init(this: Allocated<Self>) -> Retained<Self>

Initializes a CWWiFiClient object.

Source

pub unsafe fn interface(&self) -> Option<Retained<CWInterface>>

Available on crate feature CWInterface only.

Returns the CWInterface object for the default Wi-Fi interface.

Source

pub unsafe fn interfaceNames(&self) -> Option<Retained<NSArray<NSString>>>

Returns: An NSArray of NSString objects corresponding to Wi-Fi interface names.

Returns the list of available Wi-Fi interface names (e.g. “en0”).

If no Wi-Fi interfaces are available, this method will return an empty array. Returns nil if an error occurs.

Source

pub unsafe fn interfaceNames_class() -> Option<Retained<NSArray<NSString>>>

👎Deprecated: Use -[CWWiFiClient interfaceNames] instead
Source

pub unsafe fn interfaceWithName( &self, interface_name: Option<&NSString>, ) -> Option<Retained<CWInterface>>

Available on crate feature CWInterface only.

Parameter interfaceName: The name of an available Wi-Fi interface.

Get the CWInterface object bound to the Wi-Fi interface with a specific interface name.

Use +[CWWiFiClient interfaceNames] to get a list of available Wi-Fi interface names. Returns a CWInterface object for the default Wi-Fi interface if no interface name is specified.

Source

pub unsafe fn interfaces(&self) -> Option<Retained<NSArray<CWInterface>>>

Available on crate feature CWInterface only.

Returns: An NSArray of CWInterface objects.

Returns all available Wi-Fi interfaces.

If no Wi-Fi interfaces are available, this method will return an empty array. Returns nil if an error occurs.

Source

pub unsafe fn startMonitoringEventWithType_error( &self, type: CWEventType, ) -> Result<(), Retained<NSError>>

Available on crate feature CoreWLANTypes only.

Parameter type: A CWEventType value.

Parameter error: An NSError object passed by reference, which upon return will contain the error if an error occurs. This parameter is optional.

Returns: Returns YES upon success, or NO if an error occurred.

Register for specific Wi-Fi event notifications.

Source

pub unsafe fn stopMonitoringEventWithType_error( &self, type: CWEventType, ) -> Result<(), Retained<NSError>>

Available on crate feature CoreWLANTypes only.

Parameter type: A CWEventType value.

Parameter error: An NSError object passed by reference, which upon return will contain the error if an error occurs. This parameter is optional.

Returns: Returns YES upon success, or NO if an error occurred.

Unregister for specific Wi-Fi event notifications.

Source

pub unsafe fn stopMonitoringAllEventsAndReturnError( &self, ) -> Result<(), Retained<NSError>>

Parameter error: An NSError object passed by reference, which upon return will contain the error if an error occurs. This parameter is optional.

Returns: Returns YES upon success, or NO if an error occurred.

Unregister for all Wi-Fi event notifications.

Source§

impl CWWiFiClient

Methods declared on superclass NSObject.

Source

pub unsafe fn new() -> Retained<Self>

Methods from Deref<Target = NSObject>§

Source

pub fn doesNotRecognizeSelector(&self, sel: Sel) -> !

Handle messages the object doesn’t recognize.

See Apple’s documentation for details.

Methods from Deref<Target = AnyObject>§

Source

pub fn class(&self) -> &'static AnyClass

Dynamically find the class of this object.

§Panics

May panic if the object is invalid (which may be the case for objects returned from unavailable init/new methods).

§Example

Check that an instance of NSObject has the precise class NSObject.

use objc2::ClassType;
use objc2::runtime::NSObject;

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert_eq!(obj.class(), NSObject::class());
Source

pub unsafe fn get_ivar<T>(&self, name: &str) -> &T
where T: Encode,

👎Deprecated: this is difficult to use correctly, use Ivar::load instead.

Use Ivar::load instead.

§Safety

The object must have an instance variable with the given name, and it must be of type T.

See Ivar::load_ptr for details surrounding this.

Source

pub fn downcast_ref<T>(&self) -> Option<&T>
where T: DowncastTarget,

Attempt to downcast the object to a class of type T.

This is the reference-variant. Use Retained::downcast if you want to convert a retained object to another type.

§Mutable classes

Some classes have immutable and mutable variants, such as NSString and NSMutableString.

When some Objective-C API signature says it gives you an immutable class, it generally expects you to not mutate that, even though it may technically be mutable “under the hood”.

So using this method to convert a NSString to a NSMutableString, while not unsound, is generally frowned upon unless you created the string yourself, or the API explicitly documents the string to be mutable.

See Apple’s documentation on mutability and on isKindOfClass: for more details.

§Generic classes

Objective-C generics are called “lightweight generics”, and that’s because they aren’t exposed in the runtime. This makes it impossible to safely downcast to generic collections, so this is disallowed by this method.

You can, however, safely downcast to generic collections where all the type-parameters are AnyObject.

§Panics

This works internally by calling isKindOfClass:. That means that the object must have the instance method of that name, and an exception will be thrown (if CoreFoundation is linked) or the process will abort if that is not the case. In the vast majority of cases, you don’t need to worry about this, since both root objects NSObject and NSProxy implement this method.

§Examples

Cast an NSString back and forth from NSObject.

use objc2::rc::Retained;
use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj: Retained<NSObject> = NSString::new().into_super();
let string = obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().unwrap();
// Or with `downcast`, if we do not need the object afterwards
let string = obj.downcast::<NSString>().unwrap();

Try (and fail) to cast an NSObject to an NSString.

use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert!(obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().is_none());

Try to cast to an array of strings.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);
// This is invalid and doesn't type check.
let arr = arr.downcast_ref::<NSArray<NSString>>();

This fails to compile, since it would require enumerating over the array to ensure that each element is of the desired type, which is a performance pitfall.

Downcast when processing each element instead.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);

for elem in arr {
    if let Some(data) = elem.downcast_ref::<NSString>() {
        // handle `data`
    }
}
