I work for a web agency and we have just been commissioned to produce an IPhone App for a client. We would want to sell the App on the AppStore under the clients company name, not our own. When signing up our company to the IPhone Developer program, I see it says apps in the AppStore will appear under our company name. Does this mean t...

As far as I know, only the "convenience" methods return created objects with an -autorelease, so that the receiver is not responsible for the memory of that object. But because Apple says that when you use a method that has a name consisting of "new", "alloc", "create" or "copy", you're responsible for releasing the object that method re...

I understand that the iPhone itself has not got a (user accessible) file system but this is simply for testing and will only ever be run in the simulator. The file will be a text file that can be edited while the application is...
It's a month ago I was reading a line about that. I am not sure, but I think that if I call self.myInstanceVariable then it uses automatically getters/setters, but if I would call directly myInstanceVariable = @"Foo" for example, then I would bypass any getter/setter which would be really, really, reeeaaallly bad. Right/wrong? EDIT: I t...

Hey all, I'm building a UITableView programmatically without NIB files here. I'm doing something silly however, as my navigationBar shows up fine, as does my UITableView. However, the UITableView is not properly fitting onto the screen. You'll see roughly 20 pixels separating the UINavigationBar and the UITableView. I set my window's ba...
I haven't found any references to apps that use a custom activity indicator -- would be an animated GIF old-school -- in place of the Apple-supplied spinning wheels. Are there facilities to do this (or subclass UIActivityIndicatorView), do developers roll their own UIViews, or does this violate HIG? Thanks, IPD ...

My team and I have been contracted by a company to develop our first iPhone Application. I am wondering how this contractor relationship is best handled. Does the $99 SDK/Dev connection account need to be established under the contractor's name, so that when the application is approved it isn't listed by our company's name, but by thei...
