init(machPort:)

Initializes a newly allocated NSMachPort object with a given Mach port.

Declaration

init(machPort: UInt32)

Parameters

  • machPort:

    The Mach port for the new port. This parameter should originally be of type mach_port_t.

Return Value

Returns an initialized NSMachPort object that uses machPort to send or receive messages. The returned object might be different than the original receiver

Discussion

Depending on the access rights for machPort, the new port may be able to only send messages. If a port with machPort already exists, this method deallocates the receiver, then retains and returns the existing port.

This method is the designated initializer for the NSMachPort class.
