Under OS X, -[NSMethodSignature methodReturnType] returns a string identical
to the @encode() string for the return type. For instance, given the following
method declarations:
- (id)idMethod;
- (NSPoint)pointMethod;
the methodReturnTypes are "@" and "{_NSPoint=ff}", respectively. However,
under GNUstep (GNUstep-base 1.13.0, Windows) we get what appears to be the
entire signature of the method, in the example cases "@[EMAIL PROTECTED]:4" and
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8".
1. Is this the intended GNUstep behaviour? Can we expect it to continue to
work this way?
2. What is the correct parsing strategy? A prefix match would appear to work,
but there may be cases I'm not considering. The same goes for scanning up
to an integer.
