iOS Core Animation: Advanced Techniques, Part 1: The Layer Beneath

Author: https://www.cyanhall.com/

1. The Layer Tree

Core Animation's original name is Layer Kit

Core Animation is a compositing engine; its job is to compose different pieces of visual content on the screen, and to do so as fast as possible. The content in question is divided into individual layers stored in a hierarchy known as the layer tree. This tree forms the underpinning for all of UIKit, and for everything that you see on the screen in an iOS application.

In UIView, tasks such as rendering, layout and animation are all managed by a Core Animation class called CALayer. The only major feature of UIView that isn’t handled by CALayer is user interaction.

There are four hierarchies, each performing a different role:

# ~/.lldbinit-Xcode
# Apple private methods
command regex ivars 's/(.+)/po [%1 _ivarDescription]/'
command regex methods 's/(.+)/po [%1 _methodDescription]/'
command regex shortmethods 's/(.+)/po [%1 _shortMethodDescription]/'
command regex nextviewcontroller 's/(.+)/po [%1 _nextViewControllerInResponderChain]/'
command alias nextvc nextviewcontroller

This is a guard that tracks down UIKit access on threads other than main. This snippet is taken from the commercial iOS PDF framework http://pspdfkit.com, but relicensed under MIT. Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…

// You should only use this in debug builds. It doesn't use private API, but I wouldn't ship it.

  1. Select a particular experience to pursue.
  2. Pursue that experience to completion. (Achievement unlocked!)
  3. Reflect on that experience. Really soak it in. Maybe a blog post would be in order?
  4. Return to Step 1, this time selecting a new experience.
