Re: objective-c question: get selector by ascii name

[Ginger Booth]

Hi, Rick,
    Fwiw, this works:

    -loadCommand
        // OK, try to execute it.  For now, only no-arg commands allowed.
    {
        SEL sel;
    
        sel = sel_get_uid( wordBuffer );
        if ( sel ) {
            if ( [self respondsTo: sel] ) {
                [self perform: sel];
            } else {
                geckoError(InvalidCombination, 
                    "Protocol error, command '%s' not recognized.\n", 
                    wordBuffer);
            }
        } else {
            geckoError(InvalidCombination,
                "Protocol error, command '%s' not recognized.\n", 
                wordBuffer);
        }
        return self;
    }
    
So I think the answer is "it's called sel_get_uid in gcc".

Ciao,
    Ginger
