ToBeDefined / TPreventUnrecognizedSEL

Features

• Using runtime to dynamically add methods to prevent Unrecognized Selector errors prevents the app from crashing due to missing object and class methods.

  Instance method: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[TestClass losted:instance:method:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x102c....'

  Class method: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+[TestClass losted:class:method:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x10000....'

• Can get the specific information of the missing method, including:

  • The class name of the missing class method or object method;
  • The name of the missing method;
  • The missing object method or class method.

Installation

Source File

The source file contains two module directories: TPUSELNormalForwarding and TPUSELFastForwarding; Drag all the files inside the Sources folder in the corresponding module directory into you project.

⚠️Note: you can only use one of the modules to use, the module directory corresponding to all the files inside the Sources file can be dragged into the project. It is recommended to use TPUSELNormalForwarding because some methods of the system use fast forwarding

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:

$ gem install cocoapods

To integrate TPreventUnrecognizedSEL into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

# (pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL') default is use (pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL/NormalForwarding')
pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL/NormalForwarding'

or this:

pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL/FastForwarding'

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

⚠️Note: you can only use one of the subspec, NormalForwarding or FastForwarding

⚠️Use pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL' default is pod 'TPreventUnrecognizedSEL/NormalForwarding'

Carthage

Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.

You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:

$ brew update
$ brew install carthage

To integrate TPreventUnrecognizedSEL into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile:

github "tobedefined/TPreventUnrecognizedSEL"

Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built TPUSELNormalForwarding.framework or TPUSELFastForwarding.framework into your Xcode project.

⚠️Note: You can only use one of the two frameworks, TPUSELNormalForwarding.framework or TPUSELFastForwarding.framework.

How to use

Simple Use

After the project is imported, simply set which Classes to forward.

Import Header

Set Forwarding and Block

In the main() function of the APP's main.m file or in the APP's didFinishLaunching method add the following code to get the specific information about the missing method:

TPUSELNormalForwarding

// Setting does not process NSNull and its subclasses, the default is NO
[NSObject setIgnoreForwardNSNullClass:YES];
// Set the class and its subclasses in the array to not be processed (the class name in the array can be a Class type or an NSString type). By default, no class is ignored.
[NSObject setIgnoreForwardClassArray:@[@"SomeIgnoreClass1", [SomeIgnoreClass2 Class]]];
// Set to process only the classes in the array and their subclasses (the class name in the array can be either a Class or an NSString type). By default, all classes are handled.
[NSObject setJustForwardClassArray:@[@"SomeClass1", [SomeClass2 Class]]];
// Set callback after processing
[NSObject setHandleUnrecognizedSELErrorBlock:^(Class  _Nonnull __unsafe_unretained cls, SEL  _Nonnull selector, UnrecognizedMethodType methodType, NSArray<NSString *> * _Nonnull callStackSymbols) {
    // DO SOMETHING
    // like upload to server or print log or others
}];

TPUSELFastForwarding

// Set to process only the classes in the array and their subclasses (the class name in the array can be either a Class or an NSString type). By default, all classes are NOT handled.
// Set callback after processing
[NSObject setJustForwardClassArray:@[@"SomeClass1", [SomeClass2 Class]]
   handleUnrecognizedSELErrorBlock:^(Class  _Nonnull __unsafe_unretained cls, SEL  _Nonnull selector, UnrecognizedMethodType methodType, NSArray<NSString *> * _Nonnull callStackSymbols) {
       // DO SOMETHING
       // like upload to server or print log or others
   }];

Some Definitions

The following definitions and methods are in NSObject+TPUSELFastForwarding.h or NSObject+TPUSELNormalForwarding.h

typedef NS_ENUM(NSUInteger, UnrecognizedMethodType) {
    UnrecognizedMethodTypeClassMethod       = 1,
    UnrecognizedMethodTypeInstanceMethod    = 2,
};

typedef void (^ __nullable HandleUnrecognizedSELErrorBlock)(Class cls,
                                                            SEL selector,
                                                            UnrecognizedMethodType methodType,
                                                            NSArray<NSString *> *callStackSymbols);

• cls: Class type; the Class of missing instance method or class method, NSStringFromClass(cls) can be used to return the NSString for the class name
• selector: SEL type; the missing method name, NSStringFromSelector(selector) can be used to return the NSString for the method name
• methodType: UnrecognizedMethodType type; for the missing method type (class method or object method)
• callStackSymbols: NSArray<NSString *> * type; call stack infomations
