处理object_getIvar(id object, Ivar ivar)的返回值

Question

1) object_getIvar(id object, Ivar ivar) 如果 Ivar 是一个对象，则返回一个“id”，例如。 如果变量是 NSString，则可能包含该值的 id = NSString。 那是对的吗？ 或者我需要做什么才能获取 Ivar 的价值。

2）如果 Ivar 是 float/int 等，将返回什么以及如何将其转换为我可以使用的东西（float 或 int 都可以，因为我可以使用 NSNumber numberWithXXX 将其转换为对象）。

Answer 1

1）正确。 正如所述文档：

返回值
ivar 指定的实例变量的值，如果 object 为 nil，则为 nil。

2) 无论 Ivar 的类型如何，您都将始终获得 Ivar 所持有的值。 您可以使用 ivar_getTypeEncoding。 此处提供了各种类型编码的列表。

有了这些信息，您应该能够编写一个适当处理每种情况的开关； 例如：（

警告：前面未经测试的代码）

const char* typeEncoding = ivar_getTypeEncoding(var);

switch (typeEncoding) {
    case '@': {
        // handle class case
    } break;

    case 'i': {
        // handle int case
    } break;

    case 'f': {
        // handle float case
    } break;

    // .. and so on
}

用于打印任意对象的描述的示例：

- (NSString *) qCustomDescription
{
    static int depth = 0;

    NSMutableString *resultString = [NSMutableString stringWithFormat: @"<%@: %p>", NSStringFromClass([self class]), self];

    uint32_t ivarCount;
    Ivar *ivars = class_copyIvarList([self class], &ivarCount);

    if( ivars )
    {
        ++depth;
        [resultString appendString: @"\n"];

        for( int tabs = depth; --tabs > 0; )
            [resultString appendString: @"\t"];

        [resultString appendString: @"{"];

        for( uint32_t i = 0; i < ivarCount; ++i )
        {
            Ivar ivar = ivars[i];
            const char* type = ivar_getTypeEncoding(ivar);
            const char* ivarName = ivar_getName( ivar );
            NSString* valueDescription = @"";
            NSString* name = [NSString stringWithCString: ivarName encoding: NSASCIIStringEncoding];

            switch( type[0] )

                            valueDescription = [self performSelector: @selector(qDescriptionForValue:) withObject: v];
