Question

I often feel the need to split the Objective-C code into multiple files for better readability. I want to avoid making classes and call them. I want simple import (like in php).

If someone could please refer a working example.

I think you’re looking at categories in this case:

All you have to do is to create a new .h .m pair and in the .h file:

#import MyClass.h

@interface MyClass(Networking)

//method declarations here

@end

and in the .m file:

#import MyClass+Networking.h

@implementation MyClass(Networking)

//method definitions here

@end

And in MyClass.m file – do #import MyClass+Networking.h and you’re all set. This way you can extend your class.
