如何在NSMutableArray上添加观察者?

标签: objective-c iphone uitableview nsmutablearray

我搜索了很多,但没有找到有用的代码或教程。

在我的应用程序中,我有一个可变数组,每60秒更新一次。

数组中的对象由多个视图控制器中的表视图显示。

我只想在数组中的值更改或更新时自动重新加载表视图。

为此,我想在可变数组上添加观察者,即当数组中的值发生变化时,它应该调用特定的方法,例如

-(void)ArrayUpdatedNotification:(NSMutableArray*)array
{
    //Reload table or do something
} 

提前致谢。

您可以使用访问器方法将数组抽象为数据容器类,然后使用键值观察来观察备份容器对象的数组何时更改(您不能直接在NSArray上使用KVO)

下面是一个在数组顶部用作抽象的类的简单示例。您使用其insertObject:inDataAtIndex:removeObjectFromDataAtIndex:方法,而不是直接访问addObject:removeObject:

// DataContainer.h
@interface DataContainer : NSObject

// Convenience accessor
- (NSArray *)currentData;

// For KVC compliance, publicly declared for readability
- (void)insertObject:(id)object inDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
- (void)removeObjectFromDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
- (id)objectInDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
- (NSArray *)dataAtIndexes:(NSIndexSet *)indexes;
- (NSUInteger)countOfData;

@end

// DataContainer.m

@interface DataContainer ()

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableArray *data;

@end

@implementation DataContainer

//  We'll use automatic notifications for this example
+ (BOOL)automaticallyNotifiesObserversForKey:(NSString *)key
{
    if ([key isEqualToString:@"data"]) {
        return YES;
    }
    return [super automaticallyNotifiesObserversForKey:key];
}

- (id)init
{
    self = [super init];
    if (self) {
        // This is the ivar which provides storage
        _data = [NSMutableArray array];
    }
    return self;
}

//  Just a convenience method
- (NSArray *)currentData
{
    return [self dataAtIndexes:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndexesInRange:NSMakeRange(0, [self countOfData])]];
}

//  These methods enable KVC compliance
- (void)insertObject:(id)object inDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index
{
    self.data[index] = object;
}

- (void)removeObjectFromDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index
{
    [self.data removeObjectAtIndex:index];
}

- (id)objectInDataAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index
{
    return self.data[index];
}

- (NSArray *)dataAtIndexes:(NSIndexSet *)indexes
{
    return [self.data objectsAtIndexes:indexes];
}

- (NSUInteger)countOfData
{
    return [self.data count];
}

@end

我们这样做的原因是我们现在可以观察对底层数组所做的更改。这是通过Key Value Observing完成的。显示了一个实例化和观察数据控制器的简单视图控制器:

// ViewController.h
@interface ViewController : UIViewController

@end

// ViewController.m

@interface ViewController ()

@property (nonatomic,strong) DataContainer *dataContainer;

@end

@implementation ViewController

static char MyObservationContext;

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
    self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
    if (self) {
        //  Instantiate a DataContainer and store it in our property
        _dataContainer = [[DataContainer alloc] init];
        //  Add self as an observer. The context is used to verify that code from this class (and not its superclass) started observing.
        [_dataContainer addObserver:self
                         forKeyPath:@"data"
                            options:(NSKeyValueObservingOptionOld | NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew)
                            context:&MyObservationContext];
    }

    return self;
}

- (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context
{
    //  Check if our class, rather than superclass or someone else, added as observer
    if (context == &MyObservationContext) {
        //  Check that the key path is what we want
        if ([keyPath isEqualToString:@"data"]) {
            //  Verify we're observing the correct object
            if (object == self.dataContainer) {
                NSLog(@"KVO for our container property, change dictionary is %@", change);
            }
        }
    }
    else {
        //  Otherwise, call up to superclass implementation
        [super observeValueForKeyPath:keyPath ofObject:object change:change context:context];
    }
}

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    //  Insert and remove some objects. Console messages should be logged.
    [self.dataContainer insertObject:[NSObject new] inDataAtIndex:0];
    [self.dataContainer insertObject:[NSObject new] inDataAtIndex:1];
    [self.dataContainer removeObjectFromDataAtIndex:0];
}

- (void)dealloc
{
    [_dataContainer removeObserver:self forKeyPath:@"data" context:&MyObservationContext];
}

@end

当此代码运行时,视图控制器会观察到对数据的三次更改并记录到控制台:

KVO for our container property, change dictionary is {
        indexes = "<NSIndexSet: 0x8557d40>[number of indexes: 1 (in 1 ranges), indexes: (0)]";
        kind = 2;
        new =     (
            "<NSObject: 0x8557d10>"
        );
    }
KVO for our container property, change dictionary is {
        indexes = "<NSIndexSet: 0x715d2b0>[number of indexes: 1 (in 1 ranges), indexes: (1)]";
        kind = 2;
        new =     (
            "<NSObject: 0x71900c0>"
        );
    }
KVO for our container property, change dictionary is {
        indexes = "<NSIndexSet: 0x8557d40>[number of indexes: 1 (in 1 ranges), indexes: (0)]";
        kind = 3;
        old =     (
            "<NSObject: 0x8557d10>"
        );
    }

虽然这有点复杂(并且可以更多地涉及),但这是自动通知可变数组内容被更改的唯一方法。

可以做的是 - 更新阵列后发送通知(NSNotificationCenter),所有控制器都会收到此通知。收到通知后,控制器应该执行[tableview reloaddata]。

代码示例

// Adding an observer
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(updateTable:) name:@"arrayUpdated" object:nil];

// Post a notification
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"arrayUpdated" object:nil]; 

// the void function, specified in the same class where the Notification addObserver method has defined
- (void)updateTable:(NSNotification *)note { 
    [tableView reloadData]; 
}

如果你想使用闪亮的块你可以这样做

// Create an instance variable for your block holder in your interface extension
@property (strong) id notificationHolder;

// Listen for notification events (In your TableView class.
self.notificationHolder = [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:@"NotificationName"
                             object:nil
                              queue:[NSOperationQueue mainQueue]
                         usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {

        NSLog(@"Received notification");
}];

然后在dealloc中(或当你不再使用它时)

- (void)dealloc {
     [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self.notificationHolder];
}

然后在其他一些课程中

// Send a notification
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"NotificationName" object:nil];

询问是否有不清楚的事情!希望它有所帮助!

根据评论编辑

YourEvent ”是通知的名称,这意味着您可以将其命名为您想要的任何名称。 (也许“ UpdateArrayNotification 可能是一个好名字?)

需要考虑的事项:请注意,您可以为同一通知提供多个观察者。这意味着所有观察者都会抢断一个“帖子”。
