• Which are the most useful techniques for faster Bluetooth?

  - by Mike Howard

  Hi. I'm adding peer-to-peer bluetooth using GameKit to an iPhone shoot-em-up, so speed is vital. I'm sending about 40 messages a second each way, most of them with the faster GKSendDataUnreliable, all serializing with NSCoding. In testing between a 3G and 3GS, this is slowing the 3G down a lot more than I'd like. I'm wondering where I should concentrate my efforts to speed it up. How much slower is GKSendDataReliable? For the few packets that have to get there, would it be faster to send a GKSendDataUnreliable and have the peer send an acknowledgement so I can send again if I don't get the Ack within, say, 100ms? How much faster would it be to create the NSData instance using a regular C array rather than archiving with the NSCoding protocol? Is this serialization process (for about a dozen floats) just as slow as you'd expect from an object creation/deallocation overhead, or is something particularly slow happening? I heard that (for example) sending four seperate sets of data is much, much slower, than sending one piece of data four times the size. Would I make a significant saving by sending separate packets of data that wouldn't always go together in the same packet when they happen at the same time? Are there any other bluetooth performance secrets I've missed? Thanks for your help.

• How to check if a BOOL is null?

  - by Sheehan Alam

  Is there a way I can check to see if a value is NULL/Nil before assigning it to a BOOL? For example, I have a value in a NSDictionary that can be either TRUE/FALSE/NULL mySTUser.current_user_following = [[results objectForKey:@"current_user_following"]boolValue]; When the value is NULL I get the following error *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** -[NSNull boolValue]: unrecognized selector sent to instance I would like to be able to handle the NULL case.

• Vertical text in a Horizontal UIButton

  - by ArQangel

  I'm using a vertical UIButton in a portrait app (Just a normal button that is of width 60 and Height 160) I want to put the label Vetically down the button instead of across it. When I use the following code to rotate the label [workPackageButton.titleLabel setTransform:CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI / 2)]; It rotates the label but the length seems to be constrained by the original width, so I get the ... abreviation in the middle. Is there an easy way round this?

  - by Code

  Hi guys, I'm trying to work out an app design in my head and I would like the user to be able to click there destination address on the map of there area.

I've never used googlemap/api yet so just wondering if this kind of thing is possible on the iphone yet. Many Thanks -Code

• Saving core data in a thread, how to ensure its done writing before quitting?

  - by Shizam

  So I'm saving small images to core data which take a really short amount of time to save, like .2 seconds but I'm doing it while the user is flipping through a scroll view so in order to improve responsiveness I'm moving the saving to a thread. This works great, everything gets saved and the app is responsive. However, there is one thing in the core-data + multithreading doco that worries me: "In Cocoa, only the main thread is not-detached. If you need to save on other threads, you must write additional code such that the main thread prevents the application from quitting until all the save operation is complete." Ok, how do you do that? It only needs to last ~ .2 seconds and its rarely going to happen since the chance of the app quitting as something is saving is very low. How do I run something on the main thread that'll prevent the app from quitting AND not block the gui? Thanks

• Free UI tools for Cappuccino?

  - by avp

  Hi, I'm looking for free tools to design the UI for my web app. I'm pretty new to this field, so please point me to acceptable solutions. Basically, I need to fill a "screen" with some controls, that's it. Thanks. EDIT: Well, as soon as nobody answers, maybe somebody can help me with this problem for some framework other than Cappuccino?

• Sorting NSTableColumn contents

  - by Yahoo

  Hey, I have a problem with sorting NSTableColumn contents. In my NSTableView there are three columns: File, Size, Path. The contents are stored in NSMutableArray. Each object in this array is a NSDictionary containing three keys: file, size and path - value for each is a NSString. In Interface Builder, in each Table Column's attributes I can choose sorting options: Selector: IB entered "compare:" which I think is ok, because I compare NSStrings. Sort Key - and that's the problem I think - I don't know what to enter here. Any clues? If you've got questions about my code, please ask.

• SQLITE crash when no data present in table

  - by johnblack45

  Hey, Im having a problem with my app that causes it to crash when no data is present in the table when using a table view. I have tested my code and it works fine as long as there is data present but i need it to work when there is no data present. -(void)initialiseTableData { NSMutableArray *array = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init]; sqlite3 *db = [iCaddyAppDelegate getNewDBConnection]; sqlite3_stmt *statement; const char *sql = "select courseId, courseName, totalPar, totalyardage, holePars, holeYardages, holeStrokeIndexs from Course"; if(sqlite3_prepare_v2(db, sql, -1, &statement, NULL)!= SQLITE_OK) { NSAssert1(0,@"Error preparing statement",sqlite3_errmsg(db)); sqlite3_close(db); } else { while (sqlite3_step(statement) == SQLITE_ROW) { Course *temp = [[Course alloc]init]; temp.courseId = sqlite3_column_int(statement,0); temp.courseName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s",(char*)sqlite3_column_text(statement,1)]; temp.totalPar =sqlite3_column_int(statement,2); temp.totalYardage =sqlite3_column_int(statement,3); NSString tempHolePars = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s",(char)sqlite3_column_text(statement,4)]; NSString tempHoleYardages = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s",(char)sqlite3_column_text(statement,5)]; NSString tempHoleStrokeIndexes = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s",(char)sqlite3_column_text(statement,6)]; NSArray *temp1 = [tempHolePars componentsSeparatedByString:@":"]; NSArray *temp2 = [tempHoleYardages componentsSeparatedByString:@":"]; NSArray *temp3 = [tempHoleStrokeIndexes componentsSeparatedByString:@":"]; for(int i = 0; i<=17; i++) { NSString *temp1String = [temp1 objectAtIndex:i]; [temp.holePars insertObject:temp1String atIndex:i]; NSString *temp2String = [temp2 objectAtIndex:i]; [temp.holeYardages insertObject:temp2String atIndex:i]; NSString *temp3String = [temp3 objectAtIndex:i]; [temp.holeStrokeIndexes insertObject:temp3String atIndex:i]; } [array addObject:temp]; } self.list = array; [self.table reloadData]; } }

• Yet Another Simple Retain Count Question

  - by yar

  [I'm sure this is not odd at all, but I need just a bit of help] I have two retain properties @property (nonatomic, retain) NSArray *listContent; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSArray *filteredListContent; and in the viewDidLoad method I set the second equal to the first self.filteredListContent = self.listContent; and then on every search I do this self.filteredListContent = [listContent filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate]; I thought I should do a release right above this assignment -- since the property should cause an extra retain, right? -- but that causes the program to explode the second time I run the search method. The retain counts (without the extra release) are 2 the first time I come into the search method, and 1 each subsequent time (which is what I expected). Some guidance would help, thanks! Is it correct to not release?

• Is this the correct way to reloadData on a UITableView?

  - by Sheehan Alam

  I am trying to append objects to my data source and then reload the table. Is this the correct way of approaching it? self.items is my datasource //Copy current items self.itemsCopy = [self.items mutableCopy];//[[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithArray:self.items copyItems:NO]; NSLog(@"Copy Size before append: %d",[itemsCopy count]); //Get new items int lastMsgID = [self getLastMessageID]; [self.coreData getMoreMessages:self.title lastID:lastMsgID]; //This will update self.items with 30 objects //Append new items [itemsCopy addObjectsFromArray:self.items]; //Empty items and copy itemsCopy [self.items removeAllObjects]; self.items = [self.itemsCopy mutableCopy]; NSLog(@"Actual Size after append: %d",[self.items count]); //Reload data [tableView reloadData];

• How to pass an int value on UIButton click inside UITableView

  - by Toran Billups

  So I have a view controller with a single UITableView that shows a string to the user. But I needed a way to have the user select this object by id using a normal UIButton so I added it as a subview and the click event works as expected. The issue is this - how can I pass an int value to this click event? I've tried using attributes of the button like button.tag or button.accessibilityhint without much success. How do the professionals pass an int value like this? Also it's important that I can get the actual [x intValue] from the int later in the process. A while back I thought I could do this with a simple NSLog(@"the actual selected hat was %d", [obj.idValue intValue]); But this doesn't appear to work (any idea how I can pull the actual int value directly from the variable?). The working code I have is below - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell"; UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier]; if (cell == nil) { cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease]; } if ([self.hats count] > 0) { Hat* obj = [self.hats objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]]; NSMutableString* fullName = [[NSMutableString alloc] init]; [fullName appendFormat:@"%@", obj.name]; [fullName appendFormat:@" %@", obj.type]; cell.textLabel.text = fullName; cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton; //add the button to subview hack UIButton* button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect]; button.frame = CGRectMake(50, 5, 50, 25); [button setTitle:@"Select" forState:UIControlStateNormal]; button.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor]; button.adjustsImageWhenHighlighted = YES; button.tag = obj.idValue; //this is my current hack to add the id but no dice :( [button addTarget:self action:@selector(action:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; [cell.contentView addSubview:button]; //hack } return cell; } - (void)action:(id)sender { int* hatId = ((UIButton *)sender).tag; //try to pull the id value I added above ... //do something w/ the hatId }

• Urban Airship Tags issue

  - by Moshe

  I modified the alias sample code from: [request addRequestHeader: @"Content-Type" value: @"application/json"]; [request appendPostData:[[NSString stringWithFormat: @"{\"alias\": \"%@\"}", self.deviceAlias] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; to: [request addRequestHeader: @"Content-Type" value: @"application/json"]; [request appendPostData:[[NSString stringWithFormat: @"{\"tags\": \"%@\"}", offsetStr] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; offsetStr is a string containing a Timezone offset (which can be any number between -12 and 12). For some reason, Urban Airship is making each character of the string into its own tag. I've tried to substitute the - for a string neg with the same results. What's wrong?

• numeric sort with NSSortDescriptor for NSFetchedResultsController

  - by edziubudzik

  I'm trying to numerically sort data that's displayed in a UITableView. Before that I used such a sort descriptor: sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"name" ascending:YES selector:@selector(caseInsensitiveCompare:)]; now I'd like to use block to sort this numerically like this: sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"name" ascending:YES comparator:^NSComparisonResult(id obj1, id obj2) { return [((NSString *)obj1) compare:(NSString *)obj2 options:NSCaseInsensitiveSearch | NSNumericSearch]; }]; but it sorts the data incorectly causing conflict with section names in NSFetchedResultsController. So I tryed to immitate the old sorting with a comparator block - just to be sure that the problem is not caused by numeric comparison. The problem is that those lines: sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"name" ascending:YES comparator:^NSComparisonResult(id obj1, id obj2) { return [((NSString *)obj1) caseInsensitiveCompare:(NSString *)obj2]; }]; also cause the same error and I don't see why they won't sort the data in the same way the first method did... Any ideas?

• Disable the Go button in the Keyboard for a UITextfield in iphone app.

  - by coder net

  Hi, My app has a screen where keyboard is always visible. The main element of the screen is a UITextfield. For easy data entering, keyboard is always made visible. When the user finishes entering data and hits Go, the app performs a 4,5 seconds action which is done in the background thread in order to show UIActivityIndicatorView. My problem is that the Go button on the keyboard still shows as enabled since the logic is performed in the background. The user could potentially hit the Go again causing it to run again. I am not able to set editable/userinteraction properties to No because then the keyboard disappears. Is there anyway just to disable the Go button or freeze the keyboard until the background thread returns?

• From Fraction to Decimal and Back?

  Hi folks... Is it possible to store a fraction like 3/6 in a variable of some sort? When I try this it only stores the numbers before the /. I know that I can use 2 variables and divide them, but the input is from a single text field. Is this at all possible? I want to do this because I need to calculate the fractions to decimal odds. A bonus question ;) - Is there an easy way to calculate a decimal value to a fraction? Thanks..

• How can I access the int values of an object in an NSMutableArray?

  - by Daniel

  I try to access some values in a NSMutableArray I created, but I only get some numbers (address?) if I try to access them. I was able to initialize an array and can add and change objects with [myNSMutableArray addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:10]] and [myNSMutableArray replaceObjectAtIndex:0 withObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:47] I also can print the value at index [0] with NSLog(@"%@", [myNSMutableArray objectAtIndex:0]); and I get 47 as expected. But how can I access the integer value of the object in the array so I can save it tomyIntValue?

• Using Yahoo local search query for iPhone

  - by robbmcmahan

  I'm using yahoo local search in an iPhone app and trying to query everything in a certain location. According to the api docs you can pass "*" to query and it will return everything. I've tried passing it several different ways, including the way below but it does not work unless I actually pass it a real query. Does anyone know how or what I need to pass to make it query everything? [self setQuery:[@"*" stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding]]; Thanks

• Autorelease and properties

Can some one explain these things to me.
