Hi
This is not an actual Xcode error message, it is a warning that has been haunting me for
a long time. I have found no way of removing it and I think I maybe have overstepped some unwritten naming convention rule.
If I build a class, most often extending NSObject, whose only purpose is to do some task and report back when it has data, I often give it a convenience constructor like "initWithDelegate".
The first time I did this in my current project was for a class called ISWebservice which has a protocol like this:
@protocol ISWebserviceDelegate
@optional
- (void) serviceFailed:(NSError*) error;
- (void) serviceSuccess:(NSArray*) data;
@required
@end
Declared in my ISWebservice.h interface, right below my import statements.
I have other classes that uses a convenience constructor named "initWithDelegate".
E.g. "InternetConnectionLost.h", this class does not however have its methods as optional, there are no @optional @required tags in the declaration, i.e. they are all required.
Now my warning pops up every time I instantiate one of these Classes with convenience constructors written later than the ISWebservice, so when utilizing the "InternetConnectionLost" class, even though the entire Class owning the "InternetConnectionLost" object has nothing to do with the "ISWebservice" Class, no imports, methods being called, no nothing, the warning goes: 'ClassOwningInternetConnectionLost' does not implement the 'ISWebserviceDelegate' protocol
I does not break anything, crash at runtime or do me any harm, but it has begun to bug me as I near release. Also, because several classes use the "initWithDelegate" constructor naming, I have 18 of these warnings in my build results and I am getting uncertain if I did something wrong, being fairly new at this language.
Hope someone can shed a little light on this warning, thank you:)
