Question

AFHTTPRequestOperation likes to call GCD blocks when the request operation has been completed. Is there a way to get it to call method selectors instead? I am transitioning my app from ASIHTTPRequest to AFNetworking, and my app is built around selectors and not blocks.

Answer 1

You could call your selector inside of the completion block:

AFJSONRequestOperation *operation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:urlRequest
        success:^(NSURLRequest *completedURLRequest, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSDictionary *json) {
            [self callMyCustomSuccessMethod:json];
        }
        failure:^(NSURLRequest *errorRequest, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id JSON) {
            [self callMyCustomErrorMethod:error];
        }];
[operation start];
