1. Difference Between NSoperation and NSInvocationOperation
An NSoperation object is a single-shot object—that is, it executes its task once and cannot be used to execute it again.
The NSInvocationOperation class is a concrete subclass of NSOperation that manages the execution of a single encapsulated task specified as an invocation. You can use this class to initiate an operation that consists of invoking a selector on a specified object. This class implements a non-concurrent operation.
2.What is happening when we add NSOperation or NSInvocationOperation in NSoperationQueue
You typically execute operations by adding them to an operation queue (an instance of the NSOperationQueue class). An operation queue executes its operations either directly, by running them on secondary threads, or indirectly using the libdispatch library (also known as Grand Central Dispatch)
3.Which one is the best
I think the word Best may vary as per your situations 🙂
