i have more than 10 objects of the same object type, lets call it Car type. in my class, for each object i need to start a NSTimer.
//for object 1:
[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1 target:self selector:@selector(timerTick:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
//for object n:
[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1 target:self selector:@selector(timerTick:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
[EDIT] the timers are fired separately not at the same time.
However i have only one method for the 10 objects:
- (void)timerTick:(NSTimer *)timer
{
//here i need the reference to the object x (car) in order to display the timer and the name of the car for instance.
}
how can i achieve this, please? im thinking of subclassing NSTimer and adding a new property (car) to it.
CustomTimer *mytimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1 target:self selector:@selector(timerTick:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
- (void)timerTick:(CustomTimer *)timer
{
NSLog(@"%@", timer.car.name);
}
thanks
