__new__(cls, name_or_ptr, *protocols)
Create a new ObjCClass instance or return a previously created instance for the given ObjC class name or ptr.

Properties

Method Details

new(cls, name_or_ptr, protocols)
Static Method*

Create a new ObjCClass instance or return a previously created instance for the given ObjC class name or ptr.

Parameters:

name_or_ptr - Either the name of or a pointer to the class to retrieve (str or Class_t).
protocols - None, one or more protocol to add (strs or Protocol_t instances).

Returns: a new object with type S, a subtype of T

Overrides: object.__new__

str(self)
(Informal representation operator)

str(x)

Overrides: object.__str__: (inherited documentation)

add_protocol(self, protocol)

Add a protocol to this class.

Parameters:

protocol - The protocol to add (str or Protocol_t).

Returns:

True if the protocol was added, False otherwise.

get_classmethod(self, name)

Find a class method.

Parameters:

name - Name of the method (str).

Returns:

The class method wrapper (ObjCClassMethod) or None.

get_method(self, name)

Find an instance method.

Parameters:

name - Name of the method (str).

Returns:

The instance method wrapper (ObjCMethod) or None.
