how to declare a global variable in Objective-C?
// MyClass.h
@interface MyClass : NSObject
{
NSDictionary *dictobj;
}
@end
//MyClass.m
@implementation MyClass
-(void)applicationDiDFinishlaunching:(UIApplication *)application
{
}
-(void)methodA
{
// Here i need to add objects into the dictionary
}
-(void)methodB
{
//here i need to retrive the key and ob开发者_如何学Gojects of Dictionary into array
}
My question is since both methodA and methodB are using the NSDictionary object [i.e dictobj] In which method should i write this code:
dictobj = [[NSDictionary alloc]init];
I can't do it twice in both methods, hence how to do it golbally?
First of all, if you need to modify contents of the dictionary, it should be mutable:
@interface MyClass : NSObject
{
NSMutableDictionary *dictobj;
}
@end
You typically create instance variables like dictobj in the designated initializer like this:
- (id) init
{
[super init];
dictobj = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
return self;
}
and free the memory in -dealloc:
- (void) dealloc
{
[dictobj release];
[super dealloc];
}
You can access your instance variables anywhere in your instance implementation (as opposed to class methods):
-(void) methodA
{
// don't declare dictobj here, otherwise it will shadow your ivar
[dictobj setObject: @"Some value" forKey: @"Some key"];
}
-(void) methodB
{
// this will print "Some value" to the console if methodA has been performed
NSLog(@"%@", [dictobj objectForKey: @"Some key"]);
}
-----AClass.h-----
extern int myInt; // Anybody who imports AClass.h can access myInt.
@interface AClass.h : SomeSuperClass
{
// ...
}
// ...
@end
-----end AClass.h-----
-----AClass.h-----
int myInt;
@implementation AClass.h
//...
@end
-----end AClass.h-----
