绝大多数iOS开发者用过block
,并且知道用 __weak 的方式去解决循环引用的问题。而进阶一些的开发者则了解Weak-Strong-Dance
,那么什么是Weak-Strong-Dance
?它能保证block执行是的“安全”吗?
Weak-Strong-Dance
看看下面两段代码的区别,你就明白什么是Weak-Strong-Dance
了。1

6- (void)test {
__weak typeof(self) weakSelf = self;
self.block = ^{
[weakSelf copy];
};
}
1 | - (void)test { |
也就是在用 __weak 解决循环引用的前提下 ,在block
内部用 __strong 持有对象,试图解决“在多线程下,可能weakSelf指向的对象会在 Block 执行前被废弃,导致各种各样的问题,比如说KVO,传入nil可是会crash呢”,如下代码1

6__weak typeof(self) weakSelf = self;
self.handler = ^{
typeof(weakSelf) strongSelf = weakSelf;
[strongSelf.obserable removeObserver:strongSelf
forKeyPath:kObservableProperty];
};
此时,你可能会这样认为,self 所指向对象的引用计数变成 2,即使主线程中的 self 因为超出作用于而释放,对象的引用计数依然为 1,避免了对象的销毁。
思维纠正
它真的能解决在多线程下,可能 weakSelf 指向的对象会在 Block 执行前被废弃而导致的问题吗?
答案当然是否定的,让我们来看看demo:

// @end
代码很长,解释下:
在 struct __TestBlock__test_block_impl_0
里头,我们能看到TestBlock *const __weak weakSelf;
这代表在 block 内部是以弱引用的方式捕获 self 的,这没毛病。重点来了,看这一段代表 block 具体实现的代码块1

5static void __TestBlock__test_block_func_0(struct __TestBlock__test_block_impl_0 *__cself) {
TestBlock *const __weak weakSelf = __cself->weakSelf; // bound by copy
((id (*)(id, SEL))(void *)objc_msgSend)((id)weakSelf, sel_registerName("copy"));
}
这里可以看到如果此时外部废弃了self,的确会导致 block 内部访问成nil的情况。
那么如果用了Weak-Strong-Dance
呢?1

__attribute__((objc_ownership(strong))) typeof(self) strongSelf = weakSelf;
((id (*)(id, SEL))(void *)objc_msgSend)((id)strongSelf, sel_registerName("copy"));
}
holy shit!
区别在于在 block 内多了这么一行代码__attribute__((objc_ownership(strong))) typeof(self) strongSelf = weakSelf;
。
所以持有 self 的行为是在 block 执行的时候才发生的!
回过头来看看问题:它真的能解决在多线程下,可能 weakSelf 指向的对象会在 Block 执行前被废弃而导致的问题吗?
在执行前就废弃,到了执行的时候,weakSelf 已经是 nil 了,此时执行 __strong typeof(self) strongSelf = weakSelf;
根本没意义吧。
所以在刚才KVO的例子中,该crash还是继续crash吧。只要在执行__strong typeof(self) strongSelf = weakSelf;
前,对象在其他线程被废弃了,Weak-Strong-Dance不能帮上任何忙!
总结
Weak-Strong-Dance
并不能保证 block所引用对象的释放时机在执行之后, 更安全的做法应该是在 block 内部使用 strongSelf 时进行 nil检测,这样可以避免上述情况。
