@defmodule[ffi/objc]{The @schememodname[ffi/objc] library builds on
@schememodname[scheme/foreign] to support interaction with
@link["http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/"]{Objective-C}.}
The library supports Objective-C interaction in two layers. The upper
layer provides syntactic forms for sending messages and deriving
subclasses. The lower layer is a think wrapper on the
@link["http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/Cocoa/Reference/ObjCRuntimeRef/index.html"]{Objective-C
runtime library} functions. Even the upper layer is unsafe and
relatively low-level compared to normal Scheme libraries, because
argument and result types must be declared in terms of FFI C types
(@seeCtype).
@table-of-contents[]
@section{FFI Types and Constants}
@defthing[_id ctype?]{
The type of an Objective-C object, an opaque pointer.}
@defthing[_Class ctype?]{
The type of an Objective-C class, which is also an @scheme[_id].}
@defthing[_SEL ctype?]{
The type of an Objective-C selector, an opaque pointer.}
@defthing[_BOOL ctype?]{
The Objective-C boolean type. Scheme values are converted for C in the
usual way: @scheme[#f] is false and any other value is true. C values
are converted to Scheme booleans.}
@defthing[YES boolean?]{
Synonym for @scheme[#t]}
@defthing[NO boolean?]{
Synonym for @scheme[#f]}

([result-type code:blank
(code:line #:type ctype-expr)]
[arg (code:line method-id expr)
(code:line #:type ctype-expr method-id arg)])]{
Sends a message to the Objective-C object produced by
@scheme[obj-expr]. When a type is omitted for either the result or an
argument, the type is assumed to be @scheme[_id], otherwise it must
be specified as an FFI C type (@seeCtype).
If a single @scheme[method-id] is provided with no arguments, then
@scheme[method-id] must not end with @litchar{:}; otherwise, each
@scheme[method-id] must end with @litchar{:}.

#:eval objc-eval

initWithUTF8String: #:type _string "Hello")
(make-cpointer:id))
]}
@defform*[[(tellv obj-expr method-id)
(tellv obj-expr arg ...)]]{
Like @scheme[tell], but with a result type @scheme[_void].}
@defform[(import-class class-id ...)]{
Defines each @scheme[class-id] to the class (a value with FFI type
@scheme[_Class]) that is registered with the string form of
@scheme[class-id]. The registered class is obtained via
@scheme[objc_lookUpClass].
@examples[
#:eval objc-eval
(eval:alts (import-class NSString) (void))

([method (mode result-ctype-expr (method-id) body ...+)
(mode result-ctype-expr (arg ...+) body ...+)]
[mode + -]
[arg (code:line method-id [ctype-expr arg-id])])]{
Defines @scheme[class-id] as a new, registered Objective-C class (of
FFI type @scheme[_Class]). The @scheme[superclass-expr] should
produce an Objective-C class or @scheme[#f] for the superclass.
Each @scheme[field-id] is an instance field that holds a Scheme value
and that is initialized to @scheme[#f] when the object is
allocated. The @scheme[field-id]s can be referenced and @scheme[set!]
directly when the method @scheme[body]s. Outside the object, they can
be referenced and set with @scheme[get-ivar] and @scheme[set-ivar!].
Each @scheme[method] adds or overrides a method to the class (when
@scheme[mode] is @scheme[-]) to be called on instances, or it adds a
method to the meta-class (when @scheme[mode] is @scheme[+]) to be
called on the class itself. All result and argument types must be
declared using FFI C types (@seeCtype).
If a @scheme[method] is declared with a single @scheme[method-id] and
no arguments, then @scheme[method-id] must not end with
@litchar{:}. Otherwise, each @scheme[method-id] must end with
@litchar{:}.
If the special method @scheme[dealloc] is declared for mode
@scheme[-], it must not call the superclass method, because a
@scheme[(super-tell dealloc)] is added to the end of the method
automatically. In addition, before @scheme[(super-tell dealloc)],
space for each @scheme[field-id] within the instance is deallocated.

#:eval objc-eval

@defidform[self]{
When used within the body of a @scheme[define-objc-class] method,
refers to the object whose method was called. This form cannot be used
outside of a @scheme[define-objc-class] method.}
@defform*[[(super-tell result-type method-id)
(super-tell result-type arg ...)]]{
When used within the body of a @scheme[define-objc-class] method,
calls a superclass method. The @scheme[result-type] and @scheme[arg]
sub-forms have the same syntax as in @scheme[tell]. This form cannot
be used outside of a @scheme[define-objc-class] method.}
@defform[(get-ivar obj-expr field-id)]{
Extracts the Scheme value of a field in a class created with
@scheme[define-objc-class].}
@defform[(set-ivar! obj-expr field-id value-expr)]{
Sets the Scheme value of a field in a class created with
@scheme[define-objc-class].}
@defform[(selector method-id)]{
Returns a selector (of FFI type @scheme[_SEL]) for the string form of
@scheme[method-id].
