Question

I have a little problem with Xcode.
I import a header which contains this :

- (id).cxx_construct;
- (void).cxx_destruct;

so I try to set GCC_OBJC_CALL_CXX_CDTORS to yes in my build Settings on User-Defined !
But I still have this error :

Expected selector for Objective-C method

What can i do ?

Thanks,

Answer 1

these selectors are generated by the compiler. they are the reserved selectors for c++ ivar construction and destruction.

furthermore, the runtime calls these methods for you when GCC_OBJC_CALL_CXX_CDTORS is enabled. there is no need to call or declare them yourself.

declaring them would result in a compilation error.

What can i do?

choose a unique name for your selectors, and don’t implement the ones which are generated for you (when GCC_OBJC_CALL_CXX_CDTORS is enabled).

what is it you are trying to do here?
