RACSequence分析（三）—— RACEmptySequence

RACEmptySequence作为RACSequence的子类，代表一个空的序列，看下.m里面的方法。

完整测试用例在这里。

---

+ (instancetype)empty {
    static id singleton;
    static dispatch_once_t pred;

    dispatch_once(&pred, ^{
        singleton = [[self alloc] init];
    });

    return singleton;
}

类方法，返回一个单例对象。

测试用例：

- (void)test_empty
{
    RACEmptySequence *eSequence = [RACEmptySequence empty];
    RACEmptySequence *eSequence1 = [RACEmptySequence empty];

    NSLog(@"empty -- %@ -- %@", eSequence, eSequence1);

    // 打印日志；
    /*
     2018-08-15 17:27:51.484859+0800 TestRACEmptySequence[84787:15354391] empty -- <RACEmptySequence: 0x604000016500>{ name =  } -- <RACEmptySequence: 0x604000016500>{ name =  }
     */
}

---

- (id)head {
    return nil;
}

- (RACSequence *)tail {
    return nil;
}

head tail返回nil值，也就是不包含任何值。

测试用例：

- (void)test_head_tail
{
    RACEmptySequence *sequence = [RACEmptySequence empty];
    NSLog(@"head_tail -- %@ -- %@", sequence.head, sequence.tail);

    // 打印日志：
    /*
     2018-08-15 17:41:17.702545+0800 TestRACEmptySequence[85320:15393534] head_tail -- (null) -- (null)
     */
}

---

- (RACSequence *)bind:(RACStreamBindBlock)bindBlock passingThroughValuesFromSequence:(RACSequence *)passthroughSequence {
    return passthroughSequence ?: self;
}

如果passthroughSequence存在，返回passthroughSequence序列；如果不存在，返回序列自身。

测试用例：

- (void)test_bind
{
    RACEmptySequence *eSequence = [RACEmptySequence empty];

    NSLog(@"bind -- %@", [eSequence bind:^RACStreamBindBlock{
        return ^(id value, BOOL *stop) {
            return [RACStream empty];
        };
    }]);

    // 打印日志：
    /*
     2018-08-15 18:12:00.895692+0800 TestRACEmptySequence[86589:15487073] bind -- <RACEmptySequence: 0x60000000a8f0>{ name =  }
     */
}

---

- (Class)classForCoder {
    // Empty sequences should be encoded as themselves, not array sequences.
    return self.class;
}

- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)coder {
    // Return the singleton.
    return self.class.empty;
}

- (void)encodeWithCoder:(NSCoder *)coder {
}

实现序列化方法。最终还是单例对象。

---

- (NSString *)description {
    return [NSString stringWithFormat:@"<%@: %p>{ name = %@ }", self.class, self, self.name];
}

格式化输出日志。

---

- (NSUInteger)hash {
    // This hash isn't ideal, but it's better than -[RACSequence hash], which
    // would just be zero because we have no head.
    return (NSUInteger)(__bridge void *)self;
}

实现hash值的返回。

---

- (BOOL)isEqual:(RACSequence *)seq {
    return (self == seq);
}

实现实例的判断逻辑。

---

综上，这个类其实就是一个空类，并且是个单例对象。
