Objective-C: how to group a series of string constants?

问题

I defined a series of string constants like below, in macro way,

#define EXT_RESULT_APPID  @"appid"
#define EXT_RESULT_ERROR_CODE  @"errorcode"
#define EXT_RESULT_PROGRESS  @"progress"
...

All these constants are supposed to be used in same context, so I'd like to constraint them in a same namespace, and I don't want to make them global, just like what this post said.

In the other hand, I could put all numeric constants in an enum but it doesn't work for strings. Then how could I group these related string constants?

回答1:

Here's one approach:

MONExtResult.h

// add __unsafe_unretained if compiling for ARC
struct MONExtResultStruct {
    NSString * const AppID;
    NSString * const ErrorCode;
    NSString * const Progress;
};

extern const struct MONExtResultStruct MONExtResult;

MONExtResult.m

const struct MONExtResultStruct MONExtResult = {
    .AppID = @"appid",
    .ErrorCode = @"errorcode",
    .Progress = @"progress"
};

In use:

NSString * str = MONExtResult.AppID;

Create a header file where you declare your strings and import it when needed

回答3:

You may create a header file name "Constants.h". Then you need to import this header file where you want to use these constants like:

#import "Constants.h"

回答4:

Create a header file say Constants.h

Add all constants in this file. These can be constants that you would like to use in deferent classes of your project.

#define EXT_RESULT_APPID  @"appid"
#define EXT_RESULT_ERROR_CODE  @"errorcode"
#define EXT_RESULT_PROGRESS  @"progress"

Now, instead of importing this Constants.h in every class, goto <project name>-Prefix.pch file and import the File here.

#import "SCConstants.h"

now you can use the Constants in any class of the project to your ease.
