我开发的应用程序是与OS X服务器通信的iOS客户端。该应用程序的当前版本执行主线程上的所有网络逻辑,这适用于我想要做的事情。
但是,在下一个版本中,我希望网络逻辑更加灵活。为了实现这个目标,我想为它提供一个单独的线程,但我不太确定哪种解决方案适合我的需求。
起初,GCD看起来是一个很好的候选者,但它似乎只适合在一个单独的线程上执行的大量工作。我想要做的是将所有网络逻辑放在一个单独的线程上。 iOS客户端和OS X服务器之间的连接是持久的,所有数据流和处理应该在该单独的线程上进行。
问题归结为,哪种方法最适合这种情况?
编辑:为了摆脱任何混淆,我使用的连接使用套接字和NSStream实例。我不是在处理连接到远程Web服务器。换句话说,AFNetworking和ASIHttpRequest对我来说不是一个选择。

您可以使用runloop创建一个线程(我们称之为NetworkThread),运行以下代码:
while (!self.isCancelled) {
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
[[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode beforeDate:[NSDate distantFuture]];
[pool release];
}
然后您可以使用- (void)performSelector:(SEL)aSelector onThread:(NSThread *)thr withObject:(id)arg waitUntilDone:(BOOL)wait
在NetworkThread上执行网络请求选择器。
将在NetworkThread上调用所有网络回调,然后在NetworkThread上处理您的响应数据,将最终数据推送到主线程,更新UI。

AFNetworking很棒。使用块和GCD。我编写了一个NetworkClient类,使得调用它非常简单。随意使用或自定义它,但我不保证任何东西:)
如果不符合您的需求,可以删除API密钥。我添加它作为一种为我的所有网络请求添加安全性的方法。我的Web服务在返回任何内容之前检查传入的APIKey的有效性。
此外,您可以非常灵活地完成工作。您可以执行同步或异步请求,不会在发生故障时警告用户的请求等。
基本示例用法:
NSDictionary *params = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
@"GetAllParkingLots", @"Command",
nil];
[NetworkClient processURLRequestWithURL:nil andParams:params block:^(id obj) {
// I check to see what kind of object is passed back, in this case I was expecting an Array
if ([obj isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]]) {
// Do something with the Array
[self processNetworkRequestWithArray:(NSArray *)obj];
}
}];
