Re: NSLog every selector on an object?

I have an NSProxy subclass that logs the methods sent to a target 
object.

I use the class to test my code. I log the methods into an array. I 
then compare that array of strings with an expected array of strings. 
This is useful for verifying that messages between layers and 
delegates are occuring and in the right order.





Call -setExcludedMethods: to specify the methods that are not to be 
logged. Here's a usage example:

    // Replace the view with a TestProxy that logs the methods sent 
to the view.

    id documentView = [scrollView documentView];
    id documentViewProxy = [[TestProxy alloc] 
initWithTarget:documentView];

    // Set the methods that are not logged.

    NSSet *excludedMethods = [NSSet setWithObjects:
   @"hitTest:",        // Too many of these. Ignore.
   @"toolTip",
   @"inLiveResize",
   nil
    ];

    [documentViewProxy setExcludedMethods:excludedMethods];
