How to swizzle a class method on iOS?

Turns out, I wasn’t far away. This implementation works for me:

void SwizzleClassMethod(Class c, SEL orig, SEL new) {

    Method origMethod = class_getClassMethod(c, orig);
    Method newMethod = class_getClassMethod(c, new);

    c = object_getClass((id)c);

    if(class_addMethod(c, orig, method_getImplementation(newMethod), method_getTypeEncoding(newMethod)))
        class_replaceMethod(c, new, method_getImplementation(origMethod), method_getTypeEncoding(origMethod));
    else
        method_exchangeImplementations(origMethod, newMethod);
}
