This crashes during detachNewThreadSelector. How can I pass a method
to call
at the end of the thread processing as above?
There are a handful of issues here:
- a SEL is not an (id); if anything tries to -retain the SEL it is
going to crash
- in general, casting outside of casting up/down class hierarchies is
an indication that your code is wrong
If you really want to pass a selector around in a slot that normally
holds objects, use NSStringFromSelector() and NSSelectorFromString().
However, with that said, that is generally an atypical design
pattern. Not totally odd, but just not that typical. Raises a the
"what are you trying to do?" flag, though.
