Struct SKTileGroup 

#[repr(C)]
pub struct SKTileGroup { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature SKTileSet only.

A tile group encapsulates a collection of related tile definitions that are designed to be pieced together within a tile map. How those tiles are pieced together is governed by the set of rules. When a tile group is placed in a tile map, the map evaluates the rules to determine which tiles should be placed to achieve the desired outcome.

Implementations

impl SKTileGroup

pub unsafe fn tileGroupWithTileDefinition( tile_definition: &SKTileDefinition, ) -> Retained<Self>

Available on crate feature SKTileDefinition only.

Create a simple tile group for a single tile definition. This creates and initializes the SKTileGroupRule necessary to place the provided tile definition in a tile map.

Parameter tileDefinition: the tile definition we wish to place in a tile map

pub unsafe fn tileGroupWithRules( rules: &NSArray<SKTileGroupRule>, ) -> Retained<Self>

Create a tile group with the specified rules.

Parameter rules: the rules the group will use to determine tile placement

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

Create an empty tile group. Placing this in a tile map will erase the existing tile at that location.

pub unsafe fn initWithTileDefinition( this: Allocated<Self>, tile_definition: &SKTileDefinition, ) -> Retained<Self>

Available on crate feature SKTileDefinition only.

Initilize a simple tile group for a single tile definition. This creates and initializes the SKTileGroupRule necessary to place the provided tile definition in a tile map.

Parameter tileDefinition: tile definition we wish to place in a tile map

pub unsafe fn initWithRules( this: Allocated<Self>, rules: &NSArray<SKTileGroupRule>, ) -> Retained<Self>

Initilize a tile group with the specified rules.

Parameter rules: the rules the group will use to determine tile placement

pub unsafe fn rules(&self) -> Retained<NSArray<SKTileGroupRule>>

The rules that govern which tiles are placed when this group is used, and where in the map they’ll be placed.

pub unsafe fn setRules(&self, rules: &NSArray<SKTileGroupRule>)

Setter for rules.

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

Client-assignable name for the tile group. Defaults to nil.

pub unsafe fn setName(&self, name: Option<&NSString>)

Setter for name.

impl SKTileGroup

Methods declared on superclass NSObject.

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

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

Methods from Deref<Target = NSObject>

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

Handle messages the object doesn’t recognize.

See Apple’s documentation for details.

Methods from Deref<Target = AnyObject>

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());

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.

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`
    }
}
