Subclasses and superclasses

Simple Inheritance

Program 8.1 main.m
:
28: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
29:! NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
30:!
31:! ClassB * b = [[ClassB alloc] init];
32:!
33:! [b initVar];
34:! [b printVar]; // x = 100
35:!
36:! [b release];
@interface ClassA: NSObject @interface ClassB: ClassA
37:!
{ -(void) printVar;
38:! [pool drain];
! int x; @end
39:! return 0;!
}
40:! }
41: }
-(void) initVar; -(void) printVar
:
@end {
! NSLog(@"x= %i", x);
@implementation ClassA }
-(void) initVar @end
{
! x = 100;
}
@end

Extension Through Inheritance: Adding New Methods

Program 8.2 Rectangle.h
01: #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
02:
03: @interface Rectangle: NSObject
04: {
05:! int width;
06:! int height;
07: }
08:
09: @property int width, height;
10:
11: -(void) setWidth: (int) w andHeight: (int) h; Program 8.2 Rectangle.m
12: -(int) area;
13: -(int) perimeter; 01: #import "Rectangle.h"
14: 02:
15: @end 03: @implementation Rectangle
04:
05: @synthesize width, height;
06:
07: -(void) setWidth: (int) w andHeight: (int) h
08: {
09:! width = w;
10:! height = h;
11: }
:
21: @end

Extension Through Inheritance: Adding New Methods

07:!

Extension Through Inheritance: Subclassing

05: 05: {
06: -(void) setSide: (int) s; 06: NSAutoreleasePool * pool =

A Point Class and Memory Allocation

(x,y)

y myRect
(x1,y1)

(0,0) x
Program 8.4 XYPoint.h Program 8.4 Rectangle.h
01: #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> :
02: 05: @interface Rectangle: NSObject
03: @interface XYPoint: NSObject 06: {
04: { 07:! int width;
05: int x; 08:! int height;
06: int y; 09: XYPoint * origin;
07: } 10: }
08: @property int x, y; 11:
09: :
10: -(void) setX: (int) xVal andY: (int) yVal; 13: -(XYPoint *) origin;

Handling Object in Method

Program 8.4 Rectangle.h Program 8.4 Rectangle.m
01: #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> 01: #import "Rectangle.h"
02: 02:
03: @class XYPoint; 03: @implementation Rectangle

09: XYPoint * origin; 09: return origin;
10: } 10: }
11: 11: -(void) setOrigin: (XYPoint *) pt
12: @property int width, height; 12: {
13: -(XYPoint *) origin; 13: origin = pt;

Handling Object in Method

Program 8.4 main.m
02: #import "Rectangle.h"
03: #import "XYPoint.h"
:
09: Rectangle * myRect = [[Rectangle alloc] init];
10: XYPoint * myPoint = [[XYPoint alloc] init];
11:
12: [myPoint setX: 100 andY: 200];
13:

15: myRect.origin = myPoint;
16:
17: NSLog(@"Rectangle w = %i, h = %i", myRect.width, myRect.height);
18:
19: NSLog(@"Origin at (%i, %i)", myRect.origin.x, myRect.origin.y);
20:
21: NSLog(@"Area = %i, Perimeter = %i", [myRect area], [myRect perimeter]);
22:
23: [myRect release];
24: [myPoint release];

Can you explain the output from Program 7.5?

Program 8.5 main.m
:
09: Rectangle * myRect = [[Rectangle alloc] init];
10: XYPoint * myPoint = [[XYPoint alloc] init];
11:
13:
14: [myRect setWidth: 5 andHeight: 8];
15: myRect.origin = myPoint;
16:
18:
20:
22:
23: [myRect release];
24: [myPoint release]; myPoint
25:
26: [pool drain];
27: return 0; myRect width = 5 x = 100
: height = 8 y = 200
origin XYPoint@yyyy
Rectangle@xxxx


14

Fixing Reference Problem

Program 8.5B Rectangle.m Program 8.5B main.m
: :
12: -(void) setOrigin: (XYPoint *) pt 23: [[myRect origin] release];
13: { 24: [myRect release];
14: if (! origin) 25: [myPoint release];
15: origin = [[XYPoint alloc] init]; :
16:
17: origin.x = pt.x;
18: origin.y = pt.y;
19: }
:

myPoint

myRect width = 5 x = 100
height = 8 y = 200
origin XYPoint@yyyy pt

Rectangle@xxxx
x = 100
y = 200 copy

XYPoint@zzzz


15

Overriding Methods

Program 8.6 main.m
: :
07: @interface ClassA : NSObject { 22: @interface ClassB : ClassA
08: int x; 23: -(void) initVar;
09: } 24: -(void) printVar;
10: 25: @end
11: -(void) initVar; 26:
12: @end 27: @implementation ClassB
13: 28: -(void) initVar
14: @implementation ClassA 29: {
15: -(void) initVar 30: x = 200;
16: { 31: }
17: x = 100; 32: -(void) printVar
18: } 33: {
19: 34: NSLog(@"x = %i", x);
20: @end 35: }
: 36: @end
:
:
41: ClassB * b = [[ClassB alloc] init];
42:
43: [b initVar]; // uses overrinding method in B
44:
45: [b printVar]; // reveal value of x;
46: [b release];
:

16

Overriding Methods: Which method is Selected?

Program 8.7 main.m (old) Program 8.7 main.m (new)
:
07: @interface ClassA : NSObject { :
08: int x; 12: -(void) printVar;
09: } 13: @end
10: 14:
11: -(void) initVar; 15: @implementation ClassA
12: @end 16: -(void) initVar
13: 17: {
14: @implementation ClassA 18: x = 100;
15: -(void) initVar 19: }
16: { 20: -(void) printVar
17: x = 100; 21:
18: } 22: NSLog(@"x = %i", x);
19: 23: }
20: @end :
:
:
42: ClassA * a = [[ClassA alloc] init];
43: ClassB * b = [[ClassB alloc] init];
44: [a initVar]; // uses ClassA method
45: [a printVar]; // reveal value of x
46:
47: [b initVar]; // uses overrinding ClassB method
48: [b printVar]; // reveal value of x;
:

Overriding the dealloc Method and the Keyword super

Program 8.5B Rectangle.m Program 8.5B main.m
: :
12: -(void) setOrigin: (XYPoint *) pt 23: [[myRect origin] release];
14: if (! origin) 25: [myPoint release];
15: origin = [[XYPoint alloc] init]; :
16:
17: origin.x = pt.x;
18: origin.y = pt.y;
19: }
:
Text
Program 8.7B Rectangle.m
Program 8.7B main.m
:
33: -(void) dealloc :
35: if(origin) 24: [myPoint release];
36: [origin release]; :
37: [super dealloc];
38: }

Extension Through Inheritance: Adding New Instance Variables

Program 8.8 main.m Program 8.8 main.m

07: @interface ClassA : NSObject { 22: @interface ClassB : ClassA
08: int x; 23: {
09:} 24: int y;
