iOS源码阅读必备知识之Tagged Pointer

我们可以将一个对象的指针拆成两部分，一部分直接保存数据，另一部分作为特殊标记，表示这是一个特别的指针，不指向任何一个地址。所以，引入了Tagged Pointer对象之后，64位CPU下NSNumber的内存图变成了以下这样：

Tagged Pointer

测试

#import 

int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {
 @autoreleasepool {
 // insert code here...
 NSNumber *number1 = @1;
 NSNumber *number2 = @2;
 NSNumber *number3 = @3;
 NSNumber *numberFFFF = @(0xFFFF);

 NSNumber *numberLager = @(MAXFLOAT);

 NSLog(@"number1 pointer is %p", number1);
 NSLog(@"number2 pointer is %p", number2);
 NSLog(@"number3 pointer is %p", number3);
 NSLog(@"numberLager pointer is %p", numberLager);
