I want MyClass to conform to the NSCoding protocol. But I'm puzzled
about how to implement the initWithCoder: method.
Suppose I have this in MyClass.h:
NSString *S1, *S2, *S3;
and this in its init function:
S1 = @"a string";
S2 = [[NSString alloc] init];
S3 = [NSString string];
So to conform to the protocol, I'd have something like this in
MyClass.m too:
In addition to the replies I want to give a hint to something else:
- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)decoder {
self = [super init];
This is only correct, if your base class does not support NSCoding.
Otherwise you have to call -initWithCoder: (super).
Because this depends of the base class, we have a fragile base class
problem. (Adding NSCoding to the base class looks like doing
everything correct inside the base class, but will cause MyClass as a
subclass to a malfunction.) Keep in mind, that NSCoding can be added
through a category. So it looks safer to do:
if( [super respondsToSelector:@selector( initWithCoder: )] {
self = [super initWIthCoder:decoder];
} else {
self = [super init];
}
I never had this problem in practice, but theoretically … (But maybe I
got a paranoia.)
Cheers
S1 = [decoder decodeObjectForKey:@"S1"];
S2 = [[decoder decodeObjectForKey:@"S2"] retain];
S3 = [[decoder decodeObjectForKey:@"S3"] retain];
return self;
}
(I'm not posting the encodeWithCoder: method.)
So finally, my question: am I right to retain S2 and S3, and not S1?
