［通俗易懂］理解“委托”

委托的意义在于实现多态；在于让对象可以在程序运行时知足外界对其的改变。

（1）一个对象属性、动做，若是在编译时就能肯定，能够在这个对象的类里面来实现。

（2）一个对象的属性、动做，若是在运行时才能肯定，则只能经过这个对象的委托来实现。

换句话说：类，知足编译时对对象的设置和要求。委托，用于知足运行时对对象的设置和要求。

举个例子：UITableView 的一个实例对象 tableView。

当咱们在使用tableView时，咱们在编译的时候就能肯定下来这个表格的分割线颜色（separatorColor ）、分割线风格（separatorStyle ）、背景图片（backgroundView）等。还有一些，咱们在编译的时候就能够执行的方法。如：

• – cellForRowAtIndexPath:
• – indexPathForCell:
• – indexPathForRowAtPoint:
• – indexPathsForRowsInRect:
• – visibleCells
• – indexPathsForVisibleRows

固然，那些只有在运行时才能肯定的方面，咱们只能在类的委托中实现（由于在编译的时候，咱们没法肯定其状态是怎样的）。以下面这些：

• – tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath:
• – tableView:estimatedHeightForRowAtIndexPath:
• – tableView:indentationLevelForRowAtIndexPath:
• – tableView:willDisplayCell:forRowAtIndexPath:

以上，就是对委托的所有理解。若是看着还不过瘾，咱们能够经过以下篇幅，窥视一下苹果公司是如何设计tableview的。
