ObjC get property name
- by Joe Even
Yes. I've searched a lot without success.
I've looking for a way to get a property name as StringValue from inside a method.
Lets say:
My class has X Subviews from the Type UILabel.
@property (strong, nonatomic) UILabel *firstLabel;
@property (strong, nonatomic) UILabel *secondLabel;
[...]
and so on.
Inside the method foo, the views are iterated as followed:
-(void) foo
{
for (UIView *view in self.subviews) {
if( [view isKindOfClass:[UILabel class]] ) {
/*
codeblock that gets the property name.
*/
}
}
}
The Result should be something like that:
THE propertyName(NSString) OF view(UILabel) IS "firstLabel"
I've tried class_getInstanceVariable, object_getIvar and property_getName without Success.
For Example, the Code for:
[...]
property_getName((void*)&view)
[...]
RETURNS:
<UILabel: 0x6b768c0; frame = (65 375; 219 21); text = 'Something'; clipsToBounds = YES; opaque = NO; autoresize = RM+BM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x6b76930>>
But i'm looking for this kind of result: "firstLabel" , "secondLabel" and so on.
Thanks for your help!
