在以前的理解当中 copy
和 mutableCopy
对应的解释分别是 深拷贝 和 浅拷贝, 但是这样的理解是不对的, 在查找资料后, 理解如下:
所有系统容器类的copy或mutableCopy方法,都是浅拷贝
系统的容器类包括 比如NSArray,NSMutableArray,NSDictionary,NSMutableDictionary 等.
但是很多文章, 或者视频教学里的讲解并非如此. 然而在找资料的过程当中, 我看到了这一段官方的文档
There are two kinds of object copying: shallow copies and deep copies. The normal copy
is a shallow copy that produces a new collection that
shares ownership of the objects with the original. Deep copies create new objects from the originals and add those to the new collection.
大概理解一下
有两种类型的对象拷贝,浅拷贝和深拷贝。正常的拷贝,生成一个新的容器,但却是和原来的容器共用内部的元素,这叫做浅拷贝。深拷贝不仅生成新的容器,还生成了新的内部元素。
In the case of these objects, a shallow copy means that a new collection object is created,
but the contents of the original collection are not duplicated—only the object references are copied to the new container.
以上两段解释意思基本一致
代码可自行验证
而 NSString
和 NSMutableString
这两个并不是容器类, 所以谈不上 深拷贝 和 浅拷贝
如果要实现深拷贝, 则用系统方法:
initWithArray:copyItems:
比如:
NSArray *deepCopyArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithArray:someArray copyItems:YES];
当然可以自定义方法
- (NSArray *)test_deepCopy {
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray array];
for (id element in self) {
id copyElement = nil;
if ([element respondsToSelector:@selector(test_deepCopy)]) {
copyElement = [element test_deepCopy];
}
else if ([element respondsToSelector:@selector(copyWithZone:)]) {;
copyElement = [element copy];
}
else {
copyElement = element;
}
[array addObject:copyElement];
}
NSArray *result = [NSArray arrayWithArray:array];
return result;
}
- (NSMutableArray *)test_mutableDeepCopy {
NSMutableArray *array = [NSMutableArray array];
for (id element in self) {
id copyElement = nil;
if ([element respondsToSelector:@selector(test_mutableDeepCopy)]) {
copyElement = [element test_mutableDeepCopy];
}
else if ([element respondsToSelector:@selector(mutableCopyWithZone:)]) {
copyElement = [element mutableCopy];
}
else if ([element respondsToSelector:@selector(copyWithZone:)]) {
copyElement = [element copy];
}
else {
copyElement = element;
}
[array addObject:copyElement];
}
return array;
}
总结:
所有系统容器类的copy或mutableCopy方法,都是浅拷贝
系统的容器类包括
