Can Xcode tell me if I forget to include a categor

问题:

I have a category that I import in a .m thusly:

#import "UIView+Additions.h"

If I forget to add UIView+Additions.m to my target, I won't know until runtime when the runtime can't find my selector. Is there a way to find out at compile time (or probably link time) that I forgot to include a category's implemtation?

回答1:

This macro works!

#ifndef HJBObjCCategory_h
#define HJBObjCCategory_h

#define HJBObjCCategoryInterface( c , n ) \
\
extern int c##n##Canary; \
\
__attribute__((constructor)) static void c##n##CanaryCage() { \
    c##n##Canary = 0; \
} \
\
@interface c (n)

#define HJBObjCCategoryImplementation( c , n ) \
\
int c##n##Canary = 0; \
\
@implementation c ( n )

#endif

Use it like this:

UIView+Additions.h

HJBObjCCategoryInterface(UIView, Additions)

- (void)hjb_foo;

@end

UIView+Additions.m

HJBObjCCategoryImplementation(UIView, Additions)

- (void)hjb_foo {
  NSLog(@"foo!");
}

@end
