I use #pragma mark - Description
frequently to organize my methods in Xcode. However, I find that sometimes I need to categories and subcategories for my methods, like this:
Public Methods
- Helper Methods
- Other Type of Methods
Private Methods
Is this possible?
Simply only use the -
before and after your main section to surround it in lines, exclude the dash for the subsections, and then the method names will show as always.
#pragma mark - Public Methods -
#pragma mark Helper Methods
- (void)aMethod{}
#pragma mark Other Type of Methods
- (void)anotherMethod{}
#pragma mark - Private Methods -
#pragma mark Some Type of Method
- (void)aPrivateMethod{}
You can use any of these combinations:
- Hyphen before
Description
- Puts a separator above the description
#pragma mark - Description
- Hyphen after
Description
- Puts a separator below the description
#pragma mark Description -
- Hyphen before and after
Description
- Puts a separator above and below the description
#pragma mark - Description -
Also, if you just want separators and no descriptions, simply use #pragma mark
or #pragma mark -
.
