ObjC: 使用KVC

ObjC: 使用KVC

KVC是什么?即:Key-Value Coding,直译是:键值编码。

还是没明白什么意思?先看看下面的代码。

Book类的代码,头文件:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@interface Book : NSObject {
NSString *name;

}

@end

实现文件:

#import "Book.h"

@implementation Book

@end

这个Book类太简单了,只有一个实例变量name。而且,按照以前掌握的技术,没有办法给这个变量赋值了。

下面KVC登场,在main方法中给Book实例的name属性赋值并获取该属性的值:

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

Book *book=[[Book alloc] init];
[book setValue:@"《Objective C入门》" forKey:@"name"];
NSString *name=[book valueForKey:@"name"];
NSLog(@"book name: %@",name);

[pool drain];
return 0;
}

这里会发现ObjC的KVC很类似Java中通过反射得到类实例变量的方式。比如valueForKey方法先尝试在Book实例上找getName方法,如果找到就调用。如果没有找到,则查找实例是否有name变量或者_name变量。如果还没找到,会抛出类似下面的异常:

Terminating app due to uncaught exception ‘NSUnknownKeyException’, reason: ‘[<Book 0x10010c730> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key name1.’

下面把代码做一点修改,首先创建了个新类Author,图书的作者,头文件:

#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>

@interface Author : NSObject {
NSString *name;
}

@end

也有个name属性,表示作者的姓名。实现文件什么也没写:

#import "Author.h"

@implementation Author

@end

然后,将author属性添加到Book类中,即每个Book实例都有一个author属性。头文件:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@class Author;

@interface Book : NSObject {
NSString *name;
Author *author;
}

@end

实现文件还是什么都没有:

#import "Book.h"

@implementation Book

@end

在main方法中,通过kvc方式获取book的author的name属性:

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

Book *book=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book setValue:@"《Objective C入门》" forKey:@"name"];
NSString *name=[book valueForKey:@"name"];
NSLog(@"book name: %@",name);

Author *author=[[[Author alloc] init] autorelease];
[author setValue:@"Marshal Wu" forKey:@"name"];
[book setValue:author forKey:@"author"];
NSString *authorName=[book valueForKeyPath:@"author.name"];
NSLog(@"author name: %@",authorName);

[pool drain];
return 0;
}

可以看到,写法很类似JSP的EL表达式:

${book.author.name}

在ObjC的世界里叫Path,路径。当然,你也可以:

[book setValue:@"zhangsan" forKeyPath:@"author.name"];

通过路径设置属性。

KVC还有一个很重要的特点,自动装箱拆箱功能。这在ObjC中是仅有的,其他情况下均需要使用比如NSNumber来手动拆装箱的。

比如Book类头文件做了下面的增加:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@class Author;

@interface Book : NSObject {
NSString *name;
Author *author;
float price;
}

@end

实现文件还是没有动,不提了。main方法增加了对price赋值和获取值的调用,使用KVC方式:

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

Book *book=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book setValue:@"《Objective C入门》" forKey:@"name"];
NSString *name=[book valueForKey:@"name"];
NSLog(@"book name: %@",name);

Author *author=[[[Author alloc] init] autorelease];
[author setValue:@"Marshal Wu" forKey:@"name"];
[book setValue:author forKey:@"author"];
NSString *authorName=[book valueForKeyPath:@"author.name"];
NSLog(@"author name: %@",authorName);

[book setValue:@"zhangsan" forKeyPath:@"author.name"];

[book setValue:@"10.4" forKey:@"price"];
NSLog(@"book price is %@",[book valueForKey:@"price"]);


[pool drain];
return 0;
}

可以看到给price输入的是NSString类型,但是没有问题,因为KVC方式会根据字符串自动转型为适当的数值。再看打印price属性,%@是打印对象,而price属性是float基本型,这里KVC肯定做了自动装箱的处理,将基本型转为NSNumber对象。

KVC还具备对集合的操作能力。比如,图书可以有相关图书,这是个1对多的关系。可以用集合来表示,这里用NSArray表示,在Book类的头文件中改动:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@class Author;

@interface Book : NSObject {
NSString *name;
Author *author;
float price;
NSArray *relativeBooks;
}

@end

如果想得到相关图书的价格NSArray,可以使用KVC方式,见main方法:

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

Book *book=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book setValue:@"《Objective C入门》" forKey:@"name"];
NSString *name=[book valueForKey:@"name"];
NSLog(@"book name: %@",name);

Author *author=[[[Author alloc] init] autorelease];
[author setValue:@"Marshal Wu" forKey:@"name"];
[book setValue:author forKey:@"author"];
NSString *authorName=[book valueForKeyPath:@"author.name"];
NSLog(@"author name: %@",authorName);

[book setValue:@"zhangsan" forKeyPath:@"author.name"];

[book setValue:@"10.4" forKey:@"price"];
NSLog(@"book price is %@",[book valueForKey:@"price"]);

Book *book1=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book1 setValue:@"5.0" forKey:@"price"];

Book *book2=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book2 setValue:@"4.0" forKey:@"price"];

NSArray *books=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:book1,book2,nil];
[book setValue:books forKey:@"relativeBooks"];
NSLog(@"relative books price: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.price"]);

[pool drain];
return 0;
}

增加的代码见黑体斜体部分。日志将打印出相关图书的价格列表:

2011-05-26 19:27:57.456 ReleaseMemoDemo[10042:a0f] book name: 《Objective C入门》
2011-05-26 19:27:57.461 ReleaseMemoDemo[10042:a0f] author name: Marshal Wu
2011-05-26 19:27:57.462 ReleaseMemoDemo[10042:a0f] book price is 10.4
2011-05-26 19:27:57.463 ReleaseMemoDemo[10042:a0f] relative books price: (
5,
4
)

KVC还能对集合做运算,比如想得到相关图书的个数、相关图书的价格总和、相关图书的平均价格、价格的最大值和价格的最小值,见下面的代码:

NSArray *books=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:book1,book2,nil];
[book setValue:books forKey:@"relativeBooks"];
NSLog(@"relative books price: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books count: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@count"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price sum: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@sum.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@avg.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@max.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@relativeBooks.@min.price]);

相关日志:

2011-05-26 19:45:27.786 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books price: (
5,
4
)
2011-05-26 19:45:27.787 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books count: 2
2011-05-26 19:45:27.788 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books price sum: 9
2011-05-26 19:45:27.788 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books price avg: 4.5
2011-05-26 19:45:27.789 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books price avg: 5
2011-05-26 19:45:27.789 ReleaseMemoDemo[10289:a0f] relative books price avg: 4

另外,如果想获得没有重复的价格集合,可以这样:

Book *book1=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book1 setValue:@"5.0" forKey:@"price"];

Book *book2=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book2 setValue:@"4.0" forKey:@"price"];

Book *book3=[[[Book alloc] init] autorelease];
[book3 setValue:@"4.0" forKey:@"price"];

NSArray *books=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:book1,book2,book3,nil];
[book setValue:books forKey:@"relativeBooks"];

NSLog(@"relative books price: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books distinct price: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@distinctUnionOfObjects.price"]);

NSLog(@"relative books count: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@count"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price sum: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@sum.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@avg.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@"relativeBooks.@max.price"]);
NSLog(@"relative books price avg: %@",[book valueForKeyPath:@relativeBooks.@min.price]);

这里增加了book3实例,它的价格和book2相同。在使用@distinctUnionOfObjects后,发现效果是消除重复的价格:

011-05-26 19:55:41.123 ReleaseMemoDemo[10378:a0f] book price is 10.4
2011-05-26 19:55:41.124 ReleaseMemoDemo[10378:a0f] relative books price: (
5,
4,
4
)
2011-05-26 19:55:41.124 ReleaseMemoDemo[10378:a0f] relative books distinct price: (
4,
5
)

KVC还可以在一个语句中为实例的多个属性赋值:

Book *book4=[[Book alloc] init];
NSArray *bookProperties=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"name",@"price",nil];
NSDictionary *bookPropertiesDictionary=[book4 dictionaryWithValuesForKeys:bookProperties];
NSLog(@"book values: %@",bookPropertiesDictionary);

NSDictionary *newBookPropertiesDictionary=[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"《Objective C入门》",@"name",
@"20.5",@"price",nil];
[book4 setValuesForKeysWithDictionary:newBookPropertiesDictionary];
NSLog(@"book with new values: %@",[book4 dictionaryWithValuesForKeys:bookProperties]);

另外,还有两个比较高级的内容:

  • nil和覆盖setNilValueForKey方法
  • 覆盖valueForUndefinedKey方法

可自行看reference了解。
