Question

My use case is that I’m trying to start a thread where the destination target object is a class instance. The compiler is giving me an error (Unexpected interface name ”: expected expression) when I try to do something like the following:

[NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(thing:) toTarget:AClass withObject:nil];

@implementation AClass
+(void)thing:(id)arg {
// etc....
}
@end

How do I setup this scenario? Or rather, how do I get the id of the class instance?

Thanks!

You can use [AClass class]. Every class responds to the +class method and returns itself.
