I defined an NSInteger in a singleton (for userid) and access it in another class. However, while I have managed to get rid of error messages so it builds, the app crashes when it hits line.
Here is the initial definition;
Session.h
@interface Session : NSObject
@property (assign,nonatomic) NSInteger *userid;
+ (IDSession *)sharedInstance;
Session.m
@implementation Session
+ (Session *)sharedInstance {
static Session *session;
if (!session){
session = [[Session alloc] init];
NSInteger *userid=1;
//include this class in other class and reference userid with [Session sharedInstance].userid
}
return session;
}
Attempt to get session in other class that imports above class
in save method:
NSInteger *number =[Session sharedInstance].userid;//crashes here log says (lldb)
Would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this.
Thank you.
Firstly, I recommend you follow this idiom for creating a thread safe singleton.
+ (Singleton *)sharedSettings{
static Singleton *singleton;
static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
singleton = [[self alloc] initPrivate];
});
return singleton;
}
- (instancetype)initPrivate{
self = [super init];
if(!self) return nil;
return self;
}
Also, NSInteger
is not an object. It is a typedef
for a primitive long
. So remove the object pointer.
typedef long NSInteger;
You seem to be confusing NSInteger
with the NSNumber
wrapper. Take a look at the docs for NSNumber.
Here is my standart session object
H file
@interface ControllerSession : NSObject
@property(nonatomic, strong) NSString* sID;
@property(nonatomic, strong) NSDate* sDate;
#pragma mark sharedInstance
+ (ControllerSession*)sharedInstance;

- (id)sessionVariableGetWithName:(NSString*)name;

The following code using NSString instead of numbers and setting a local variable rather than a property works:
Session.h
@interface IDSession : NSObject
@property (readonly, copy) NSString *userid;
+ (IDSession *)sharedInstance;
@end
Session.m
#import "IDSession.h"
@interface IDSession()
@property (readwrite,copy)NSString * userid;
@end
@implementation IDSession
+ (IDSession *)sharedInstance {
static IDSession *session;
if (!session){
session = [[IDSession alloc] init];
//include this class in other class and reference userid with [IDSession sharedInstance].userid
NSString * userid = @"1";
}
return session;
}
@end
in retrieving class.
#import "session.h"
NSString *userid =[Session sharedInstance].userid;
NSLog(@"userid retrieved from session variable is %@",userid);
