Call the static method selector from a separate class

Question

let's say I want to create the next gesture recognizer

UITapGestureRecognizer * c1 = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector([[MyGestureRecognizer ViewWasClicked1:]]; // error [c1 setNumberOfTapsRequired:1]; [c1 setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1]; [[self view] addGestureRecognizer:c1]; 

but I want to call the selector in a separate class. I have a method:

 + (void)ViewWasClicked1:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender { NSLog(@"click1 mouse down"); } 

in the class MyGestureRecognizer. Is it possible that I'm looking for?

Answer 1

Syntax:

 UITapGestureRecognizer * c1 = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:[MyGestureRecognizer class] action:@selector(ViewWasClicked1:)]; // error 

Answer 2

To test and call static methods, you can do this:

 SEL staticMethodSelector = @selector(methodName); if ([[ClassName class] respondsToSelector:staticMethodSelector]) { [[ClassName class] performSelector:staticMethodSelector]; }
