Arc and performSelector


  • Subject: Arc and performSelector

I have this code:

for( id aThing in someArray )
{
	if ( [ aThing respondsToSelector: @selector(setTitle:) ] )
	{
		[ self	replaceIn: 		aThing
				readSelector: 	@selector(title)
				writeSelector:	@selector(setTitle:)
				withTable: 		tableName
		];
	}
}


- (void)replaceIn: thing  readSelector: (SEL)selectorIn  writeSelector: (SEL)selectorOut  withTable: (NSString *)tableName;
{
	NSString *key = [ thing performSelector: selectorIn ];
	...
	NSString *rep = ...
	[ thing performSelector: selectorOut withObject: rep ];
}

Now, using Arc I am told that  "PerformSelector may cause a leak because its selector is unknown".
What I am supposed to do about this? I really want to have code without warnings.


Update:
I guess Arc has no way to know, whether "selectorIn" is something like "copy".
So I am quite willing to reassure it that "selectorIn" is always something like title, stringValue, toolTip, etc.
I think I should declare the SEL as __attribute__((ns_returns_not_retained)).

But how exactly? There really should be some examples.


Gerriet.
