iPhone Objective-C service handlers
- by Xavi Colomer
Hello community!
I am a as3 developer, I am used to use handlers everytime I launch an event and I am wondering which is the best way / practice to do that in Objective C.
Let's say I want to call a diferent services from my backend.
In as3 would be something like this to listent to the finish event:
service.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, handler_serviceDidFinished )
service2.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, handler_serviceDidFinished2 )
But how can I do the same in Objective C?
The problem is I already created the protocols and delegates, but how can I separate each response from the server?
For example:
-(void)callService:( NSString * )methodName withParameters:(NSMutableDictionary *) parameters
{
...
if (self.delegate != NULL && [self.delegate respondsToSelector:@selector(serviceDidFinishSuccessfully:)]) {
[delegate serviceDidFinishSuccessfully:data];
}
}
Well I'm trying to create a generic delegate here, so how can I separate each response for every service?
My first idea is that maybe I should return the name of the service method in the delegate call to identify each service. Maybe I should create a UID for each service and pass it the same way...
Any idea?
