如何在XCode 4.2中一起使用c ++和Objective-c

Question

I had a trouble to combine c++ and objective-c together in developing a iphone app. I had a 3rd party library to use in the app. I had a plan to use c or c++ to wrap the library and then use objective-c to call it. After I had finished the class with c++, I had a trouble to use it in objective-c. Is there any sample code? Thanks.

in the objective-c head file. I write

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "ZJTConstants.h"
#include "TTSAdapter.h"

class Adapter;
@interface ZJTVBlogViewController : UIViewController {
@private
    Adapter* adapter;
}
@end

and in the mm file, I write:

if (self) {
    adapter = Adapter::getInstance();
    // Custom initialization
}

Is it write?

Answer 1

In XCode there is a flag to compile all files as Objective-C++. I've used it to compile huge C++ libraries into iOS programs.

If you look at the "Build Settings" there is a place written "Compile Sources As". There is a dropdown menu there where you can select Objective-C++. In the clang/gcc commandline I think it is "-x objective-c++".

Just rename your file to have an extension .mm instead of .m .

To mix C++ code with Objective-C code, you will need Objective-C++ compiler. XCode by default compiles .m files with Objective-C compiler and .mm ones with Objective-C++ one.

Calling C++ code from Objective-C code involves ending your file with .mm (instead of .m) so that the Objective-C++ compiler will be used.

This compiler can understand both C++ and Objective-C.

In other words, the ObjC++ compiler lets you put C++ code directly in Objective-C methods, and vice versa.

Take a look at Cocoa_With_Carbon_or_CPP example and Strategies for Using C++ in Objective-C Projects (and vice versa) article .
