The JavaScript-Objective-C bridge lets you call Objective-C functions from JavaScript code loaded in a UIWebView instance.
Note that this project is currently VERY VERY ALPHA state. Please don't use it:)
Pass operands and operators through the location.href property.
The path part of the specifined URL is used to represent a sequence of instruction.
JavaScript-Objective-C bridge bridge works as a stack machine.
For example:
location.href = "bridge:///-123/-456/@add/-hoge/-1/@callback"
In this example, list of instructions is represented as -123/-456/@add/-hoge/-1/@callback.
A path component beginning with - means a operand, and a path component beginning with @ means operator.
Operators are defined as methods of the JavaScriptBridge class. See the source code for more detail.
JavaScript code sends a list of instructions to the delegate object through the location.href property.
Each instruction is packed in a path part in a URL.
This list of instructions is processed by a stack machine implemented in the delegate object.
Objective-C code sends message via stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString: method on UIWebView class.
