彻底分析block中的循环引用

我做了一个被push到的controller，pop的时候，controller会释放，解析详见注释，欢迎批评指正！

#import "AnimaViewController.h"@interface AnimaViewController ()@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *view1;@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *view2;@property (nonatomic, copy) void (^block)(int);//self持有了block@property (nonatomic, strong) UIButton *btn;@property (nonatomic, strong) NSTimer *timer;@end@implementation AnimaViewController__weak AnimaViewController *weakSelf;//用弱引用来跟踪self的释放情况。- (void)viewDidLoad {    weakSelf = self;//指向self的弱引用。        [super viewDidLoad];    self.view1 = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 100, 90, 90)];    self.view1.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];    [self.view addSubview:self.view1];        self.view2 = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 300, 90, 90)];    self.view2.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];    [self.view addSubview:self.view2];        self.btn = [[UIButton alloc]init];    self.btn.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];;    [self.btn setFrame:CGRectMake(100, 100, 80, 80)];    [self.btn addTarget:self action:@selector(tapAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];    [self.view addSubview:self.btn];        //系统有时候会提示你可能导致循环引用，但会有漏掉的情况，比如strong变量定义成全局变量的时候。    __weak AnimaViewController *weakSelfLocal = self;//弱引用，引用计数不会增加。    self.block = ^ (int num){        __strong AnimaViewController *strongSelf = weakSelfLocal;//增加了对self的引用计数。        [strongSelf.btn setTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", num] forState:UIControlStateNormal];        [strongSelf.btn setTitleColor:[UIColor whiteColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];        //此后strongSelf变量作为局部strong变量，被系统发送了release消息（编译时就已插入release），所以strongSelf已经不构成对self的引用。如果将__weak AnimaViewController *weakSelfLocal定义为全局变量，那么此处strongSelf不会被release，所以仍然保持对self的强引用，则会导致循环引用。此处定义strong变量的用意是防止self被释放，导致此处的操作失效。    };        self.block(100);        NSLog(@"%@", weakSelf);//此处self没有被释放，所以对它的弱引用变量weakSelf不为null。        //关于注册通知中的block：The block is copied by the notification center and (the copy) held until the observer registration is removed.可见block中不能持有self的强引用，否则只有解除注册的时候，才能释放对self的持有，而self只有释放的时候才会在dealloc中解除通知的注册，则导致循环引用。所以要用弱引用代替self。    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter]addObserverForName:@"blockretaincycle" object:nil queue:[NSOperationQueue mainQueue] usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {        [weakSelfLocal.btn setTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", 888] forState:UIControlStateNormal];        [weakSelfLocal.btn setTitleColor:[UIColor whiteColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];    }];        //runloop对timer强引用，timer的target又强引用了self，self又强引用了timer，所以会循环引用，不会调用dealloc。    self.timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0                                     target:self                                   selector:@selector(timerMethod)                                   userInfo:nil                                    repeats:YES];}- (void)timerMethod{    NSLog(@"%@", [NSDate date]);}- (void)tapAction:(UIButton *)sender{    //很多系统自带的block里，可以直接用self，不会循环引用。不清楚的可以看苹果官方文档。    [UIView animateWithDuration:1.0 animations:^{        [self.view1 setFrame:CGRectMake(100, 400, 70, 70)];    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {        [self.view1 setFrame:CGRectMake(100, 400, 70, 70)];    }];}- (void)dealloc{    NSLog(@"%@", weakSelf);//weakSelf是全局的，而此处打印为（null）,说明self已经被释放。如果导致循环引用，则不会调用这个方法。    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter]removeObserver:self name:@"blockretaincycle" object:nil];//    [self.timer invalidate];//写在这里没用，不会调用的}- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated{    [super viewWillDisappear:animated];    [self.timer invalidate];//写在这里，确保退出页面的时候，timer失效，不会对self强引用，self可以销毁了。}@end
