Some info/links I found useful in regards to iOS Delegates, Delegation Chaining and Notifications

delegates-chaining-notifications.md

Some references I found useful/interesting

• Delegation or Notification

• Delegation Notification and Observation

• NSNotificationCenter vs AppDelegate

• Cocoa Delegate Chain

• There was a library I remember seeing that implemented some measure of chaining (similar to JQuery's?), might have been related to futures? Dunno.. should find it again.

From Nimbus

• NITableViewActions.html#forwardingTo:
• NIRadioGroup.m Forwarding

My Random Musings

• Generic class/protocol type thing that can be implemented to forward any delegates?
  • Allow chaining chains to chains
    • [foo chainsToDelegate:self.delegate] (This will call chainsToDelegate on foo (implementing it's delegate actions), returning a 'delegation object' (id ?)
    • This would let us create a chain of delegates
    • Eg. self.delegate = [foo chainToDelegate:[bar chainToDelegate:[baz chainToDelegate:self.delegate]]];
    • May or may not be actually useful in the real world (but sounds cool to my mind atm!)
