Unfortunately, I can't. ObjectAdded is a callback function (of type
IOServiceMatchingCallback) with a fixed number of parameters.
I don't know IOKit, but I suspect the "void *refCon" exists for this
very purpose. It is a very common design idiom for C function pointers
to provide a void* parameter for user data so cases like this one can
be handled.
A quick look at the documentation implies to me that that the function
IOServiceAddMatchingNotification is the one and only function you go
through to setup your callback. You are expected to pass a "void*
refCon" as a parameter. This is where you should shove your object's
instance pointer.
Then in the callback, you'll get back this pointer as the "void*
refCon". Just cast the pointer back to FooBar* and use as the other
messages described.
