iphone threading speed up startup of app
- by BahaiResearch.com
I have an app that must get data from the Sqlite database in order to display the first element to the User.
I have created a domain object which wraps the DB access and is a thread safe singleton.
Is this following strategy optimal to ensure the fastest load given the iPhone's file access and memory management capabilities in threaded apps:
1) In the AppDelegate's FinishedLaunching event the very first thing I do is create the domain singleton within a new thread. This will cause the domain object to go to Sqlite and get the data it needs without locking the UI thread.
2) I then call the standard Window methods to add the View and MakeKeyAndVisible etc.
Is there an earlier stage in the AppDelegate where I should fire off the thread that creates the Domain Object and accesses Sqlite?
