Class Methods
argumentsFor:originalArguments:
- Parses a variadic list into array of objects
+ (NSArray *)argumentsFor:(id)signature originalArguments:(id)argumentsDiscussion
- Parses a variadic list into array of objects
Note: The current solution handles only object,selector,BOOL and char types. * * @param signature The signature to determine the type of parameters in the variadic list * @param arguments The variadic list * * @return Array of parsed objects

Returns the class for the method described in the MethodInfo.
+ (Class)classForMethodInfo:(id)methodInfoParameters
- methodInfo
Describes the target class and it’s method
Return Value
A Class object for instance methods and meta class object for class methods

+ (IMP)implementationWithChaosContext:(id)chaosContext environment:(id)blockParameters
- chaosContext
The context of the implementation
- block
Block for the body of the implementation pointer
Return Value
the implementation pointer
Discussion

+ (Method)methodForMethodInfo:(id)methodInfoParameters
- methodInfo
Describes the target class and it’s method
Return Value
The Method pointer
Discussion

Declared In
DixieRunTimeHelper.hobjectFromNext:type:
Converts the next item in the variadic arguments list into subclass of NSObjects
+ (id)objectFromNext:(id)arguments type:(id)argTypeParameters
- arguments
The variadic list
- argType
the expected type of the next item
Return Value
An NSObject subclass that represents the argument
Discussion
