If you are +using a different runtime, you can skip it. +</p> +<p>The implementation of messaging in the GNU Objective-C runtime is +designed to be portable, and so is based on standard C. +</p> +<p>Sending a message in the GNU Objective-C runtime is composed of two +separate steps. First, there is a call to the lookup function, +<code>objc_msg_lookup ()</code> (or, in the case of messages to super, +<code>objc_msg_lookup_super ()</code>). This runtime function takes as +argument the receiver and the selector of the method to be called; it +returns the <code>IMP</code>, that is a pointer to the function implementing +the method. The second step of method invocation consists of casting +this pointer function to the appropriate function pointer type, and +calling the function pointed to it with the right arguments. +</p> +<p>For example, when the compiler encounters a method invocation such as +<code>[object init]</code>, it compiles it into a call to +<code>objc_msg_lookup (object, @selector(init))</code> followed by a cast +of the returned value to the appropriate function pointer type, and +then it calls it. +</p> +<table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="Dynamically-registering-methods.html#Dynamically-registering-methods" accesskey="1">Dynamically registering methods</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="Forwarding-hook.html#Forwarding-hook" accesskey="2">Forwarding hook</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +</table> + + + + +</body> +</html> |
