iOS – How to implement a performSelector with multiple arguments and with afterDelay?

Personally, I think that a closer solution to your needs is the use of NSInvocation.

Something like the following will do the work:

indexPath and dataSource are two instance variables defined in the same method.

SEL aSelector = NSSelectorFromString(@"dropDownSelectedRow:withDataSource:");

if([dropDownDelegate respondsToSelector:aSelector]) {
    NSInvocation *inv = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature:[dropDownDelegate methodSignatureForSelector:aSelector]];
    [inv setSelector:aSelector];
    [inv setTarget:dropDownDelegate];

    [inv setArgument:&(indexPath) atIndex:2]; //arguments 0 and 1 are self and _cmd respectively, automatically set by NSInvocation
    [inv setArgument:&(dataSource) atIndex:3]; //arguments 0 and 1 are self and _cmd respectively, automatically set by NSInvocation

    [inv invoke];
}
