You can specify that a class adopts a protocol by defining it as:

@interface ClassB : ClassA <Check>
{
...
}
...
@end

This will tell the compiler that ClassB implements the Check protocol. You can put multiple protocols by separating them with a comma:


@interface ClassB : ClassA <Check, someotherproto> { ... } ... @end

This will stop compiler warnings and will also warn if a class you defined to use the protocol doesn't have an implementation for the method(s) in that protocol.
