objective-c - 不兼容的 block 指针类型将 'int (^)(__strong id, __strong id)' 发送到类型为 'NSComparator' 的参数

Question

从 xcode 5.0 移动到 5.1 时，GPUImage 库出现以下错误。在谷歌上搜索后，我发现我需要像这样发送 int [NSNumber numberWithInt:number] 但问题是我无法控制在下面给定的代码中传递给 sortedArrayUsingComparator 的值。

错误日志:

不兼容的 block 指针类型将“int (^)(__strong id, _strong id)”发送到“NSComparator”类型的参数(又名“NSComparisonResult (^)(_strong id, __strong id) ')

Answer 1

比较 block 必须返回一个 NSComparisonResult，它是NSOrderedAscending、NSOrderedSame 或 NSOrderedDescending(又名 -1、0、+1),取决于第一个元素是小于、等于还是大于第二个元素)。

返回 x1 > x2 不满足这个要求，编译器会报错，因为它从最后一条语句“推断”返回类型为 int。

要解决这个问题，你可以

• 使用来自 Is there a standard sign function (signum, sgn) in C/C++? 的技术返回 -1、0 或 +1、和
• 将 block 的返回类型显式声明为 NSComparisonResult让编译器开心。

您还可以通过将 block 参数声明为NSValue *。

NSArray *sortedPoints = [points sortedArrayUsingComparator:^NSComparisonResult(NSValue *a, NSValue *b) {
    float x1 = [a CGPointValue].x;
    float x2 = [b CGPointValue].x;
    return (x1 > x2) - (x2 > x1); // -1, 0, or +1
}];
