Passing Data through NSTimer UserInfo

Question

I am trying to pass data through userInfo for an NSTimer call. What is the best way to do this? I am trying to use an NSDictionary, this is simple enough when I have Objective-C

Answer 1

You should not cast your objects to id when assigning to the dictionary. Any object that can be embedded directly into a NSDictionary already derives from NSObject and are implicitly concidered cast to id. Store the name of the selector as an NSString (using NSStringFromSelector()) and then convert it back to a selector using NSSelectorFromString()
