decodePortObject

Decodes and returns an NSPort object that was previously encoded with any of the general encode...Object: messages.

Declaration

- (NSPort *) decodePortObject;

Return Value

An NSPort object that was previously encoded with any of the general encode...Object: messages.

Discussion

This method is primarily for use by NSPort objects themselves—you can always use decodeObject() to decode any object.

NSPort invokes this method in its init(coder:) method so the appropriate kernel information for the port can be decoded. A subclass of NSPortCoder shouldn’t decode an NSPort by sending it an init(coder:) message. See Subclassing NSCoder for more information.
