AFNetworking-Synchronous
A minimal category that adds synchronous request support to AFNetworking 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x.
What is AFNetworking-Synchronous?
AFNetworking-Synchronous is an Objective-C category that adds synchronous HTTP request capabilities to the AFNetworking library. It solves the problem of needing blocking network operations in situations where asynchronous design isn't practical, such as when working with document architectures or other frameworks that handle threading internally and expect synchronous results.
iOS and macOS developers using AFNetworking who need synchronous network requests for specific use cases where asynchronous patterns aren't feasible, particularly those working with frameworks that manage their own threading.
Developers choose AFNetworking-Synchronous because it provides a safe, well-tested way to perform synchronous requests with AFNetworking while avoiding common deadlock scenarios. It offers cross-version compatibility and clear guidance about proper usage, making it more reliable than implementing synchronous wrappers manually.
