iOS - How to know when NSOperationQueue finish processing a few operations?

Question

I need in my application to download directories and their content. So I decided to implement a NSOperationQueue and I subclassed NSOperation to implement NSURLRequest etc..

Answer 1

Add a "Done" NSOperation which has all other NSOperations for one directory as dependency.

Something like this:

NSInvocationOperation *doneOp = [[NSInvocationOperation alloc] initWithTarget:self selector:@selector(done:) object:nil];

NSInvocationOperation *op1 = [[NSInvocationOperation alloc] initWithTarget:self selector:@selector(doSomething:) object:nil];
[queue addOperation:op1];
[doneOp addDependency:op1];

NSInvocationOperation *op2 = [[NSInvocationOperation alloc] initWithTarget:self selector:@selector(doSomething:) object:nil];
[queue addOperation:op2];
[doneOp addDependency:op2];

NSInvocationOperation *op3 = [[NSInvocationOperation alloc] initWithTarget:self selector:@selector(doSomething:) object:nil];
[queue addOperation:op3];
[doneOp addDependency:op3];

[queue addOperation:doneOp];

doneOp will only run after op1, op2 and op3 have finished executing.
