copied!<p>I am having issues getting something to work in objective c. I have the following protocol:</p> <pre><code>@protocol PFItem <NSObject> - (NSNumber *)weight; - (NSNumber *)cost; @end </code></pre> <p>This protocol is implemented in the following class:</p> <pre><code>@interface PFItemObject : NSObject <NSCoding, PFItem> { NSString *name; NSNumber *weight; NSNumber *cost; } @property (retain, nonatomic) NSString *name; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSNumber *weight; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSNumber *cost; @property (readonly) NSString *className; + (id)itemWithString:(NSString *)string; @end </code></pre> <p>Now, this works well for me, except when I use the PFItemObject as a superclass like so:</p> <pre><code>@interface PFWeaponObject : PFItemObject <NSCoding, PFItem> { NSString *damage; NSString *critical; NSString *range; NSNumber *attackBonus; NSNumber *damageBonus; WeaponTypes type; BOOL isTwoHanded; } @property (retain, nonatomic) NSString *damage; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSString *critical; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSString *range; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSNumber *attackBonus; @property (retain, nonatomic) NSNumber *damageBonus; @property WeaponTypes type; @property BOOL isTwoHanded; + (PFWeaponObject *)unarmedWeapon; @end </code></pre> <p>The <code>+itemWithString:</code> method, in the <code>PFWeaponObject</code> works like this:</p> <pre><code>+ (id)itemWithString:(NSString *)string { NSArray *components = [string componentsSeparatedByString:@";"]; PFWeaponObject *weapon = [[PFWeaponObject alloc] init]; [weapon setName:[components objectAtIndex:0]]; [weapon setWeight:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:[[components objectAtIndex:1] floatValue]]]; [weapon setCost:[NSNumber numberWithInt:[[components objectAtIndex:2] intValue]]]; [weapon setDamage:[components objectAtIndex:3]]; [weapon setCritical:[components objectAtIndex:4]]; [weapon setRange:[components objectAtIndex:5]]; [weapon setType:[[components objectAtIndex:6] integerValue]]; [weapon setAttackBonus:[NSNumber numberWithInt:[[components objectAtIndex:7] intValue]]]; [weapon setDamageBonus:[NSNumber numberWithInt:[[components objectAtIndex:8] intValue]]]; [weapon setIsTwoHanded:[[components objectAtIndex:9] boolValue]]; return [weapon autorelease]; } </code></pre> <p>I assumed that, because I have inherited from the PFItemObject, I should be able to assign values to the superclass' properties without problem. But when I do the following:</p> <pre><code>- (void)testItemCreationStrings { NSString *weaponString = @"+1 Greatsword;25;2500;2d6;x3;Melee;5;1;1;YES"; PFWeaponObject *sampleWeapon = [PFWeaponObject itemWithString:weaponString]; } </code></pre> <p>All properties from the superclass (<code>PFItemObject</code>) all return <code>@"+1 Greatsword"</code>. Did I miss something somewhere that I should have done?</p> <p>Thanks for any help you can provide, and please, feel free to ask for more information if you need it.</p>
