NSConnection进程间通信ios版

之前逆向Mac上app时，发现有些app会用一个守护进程来和后开启的app来通信，虽然知道是进程间的通信，但是还是不太清楚这是一个怎么样的过程，怎么实现的。今天简单看了一下Mac上的进程间通信是怎么回事。
我看的Mac上用NSConnection来实现进程间通信的。
首先创建NSConnection并设置一个能提供一些协议方法的对象（setRootObject：）,有些和http,ftp协议一样的方法。完了之后就注册名字，有点像注册服务一样。然后一个服务端就启动了。
那个么客户端呢？
直接用NSConnection的类方法rootProxyForConnectionWithRegisteredName获取一个NSDistantObject对象。然后设置他要代理的协议（setProtocolForProxy）。那么这个这个对象可以随意调用这些协议。
就这样只要服务端的RootObject实现的协议，客户端都可以去调用。整个过程就像http，FTP等等一些协议一样。
在iOS端呢，虽然你也可以用NSConnection来创建对象。但是却找不到头文件，点进去你会发现它只会在Foundation/NSPort中声名 是一个类

根本用不知道有什么方法来调用，最后我用私有方法获取整个类的声名，写并写进来一个文件，当然包含私有方法：

@interface NSConnection : NSObject

@property (readonly, copy) NSDictionary* statistics;
@property double requestTimeout;
@property double replyTimeout;
@property (retain) id rootObject;
//@property * delegate;
@property BOOL independentConversationQueueing;
@property (readonly, getter=isValid) BOOL valid;
//@property (readonly, retain) id* rootProxy;
@property (readonly, copy) NSArray* requestModes;
@property (readonly, retain) NSPort* sendPort;
@property (readonly, retain) NSPort* receivePort;
@property (readonly) BOOL multipleThreadsEnabled;
@property (readonly, copy) NSArray* remoteObjects;
@property (readonly, copy) NSArray* localObjects;

接着你就能像Mac fountion下一样来写进程间的通信了。具体demo会在本文结束时提供地址，包含客户端和服务端。
但是iOS所有App在进入后台时进程会被挂起，这时你可以用一些voip或者下载防止进程被挂起。一旦进程被挂起，客户端就拿不到任何数据了。。
