I want to update a MapView in an iPhone app. Using a geocordinate, this is trivial. But what if I don't know the coordinate? I want to update it using an address string, like you would enter in the text box of google maps. To give a little more background, in my app a MapView is displayed with the user's current location. After the loc...

Reading the documentation, I would have to do something ugly like this: NSLocale *usLocale = [[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_US"] autorelease]; NSDecimalNumber *number = [NSDecimalNumber decimalNumberWithString:@"0.00001" locale:usLocale]; But: Isn't there a nicer way of telling that NSDecimalNumber class to look out ...
I have a tight loop that iterates about 500 times. In every iteration, it will create a few NSDecimalNumber objects to do some arithmetics. Example - this code snippet is in the for loop. the -decimalNumberByAdding: method creates a new NSDecimalNumber instance and autoreleases it. resultDecimalNumber = [resultDecimalNumber decimalNumb...
How can I have a localized default values in the Settings bundle? I encounter this problem for regionally sensitive defaults. Consider an option in the settings bundle to indicate whether to show distances in miles or kilometers. The default settings for en_US and en_GB is 'miles, and km for everywhere else. Does the SDK provide a se...
I've got several annotations I want to add to my MKMapView (it could 0-n items, where n is generally around 5). I can add the annotations fine, but I want to resize the map to fit all annotations onscreen at once, and I'm not sure how to do this. I've been looking at -regionThatFits: but I'm not quite sure what to do with it. I'll post ...

I'm writing an application for the iPhone that communicates with a SQLite database but I'm running into a small problem. Whenever I try to query information based on a condition that contains an apostrophe, no results are returned.... even if a result that matches the requested condition exists. Let me give some specifics... SQLite Ta...
I'm trying to write a command line script to access Apple SDK docsets (like perldoc for perl or ri for ruby). Apple has a tool called docsetutil which will let you search a docset, but it is very limited (for example, you can't do a partial search). Is there a more powerful way to access the docs without having to manually parse the HTML...
Hi Everyone: I am wondering how I would go about animating a UIView's to a specific CGPoint. The following is what I have so far (which doesn't work in it's current state): #define MOVE_ANIMATION_DURATION_SECONDS 2 NSValue *pointValue = [[NSValue valueWithCGPoint:point] retain]; [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:pointValue]; [UIVie...
I am not sure if that would make any trouble. Normally, lets say, I sum up a few values. I would do it like this: val1 = val1 + val2; val1 = val1 + val3; val1 = val1 + val4; and so on... Could I do something similar with NSDecimal, or should I not provide the same NSDecimal "object" twice in the parameters? (btw, how's that called? no...

I have a segment control that when one of the segments is clicked I want to pass variables (two integers to be specific) to the segmented control's action. How do I modify the below code to do so? I know how to go to the segment action but I don't know how to pass variables to it. I know this is probably obj-C 101 but I'm stumped. Tha...
There are a handful of iPhone apps out there doing some behind-the-scenes trickery with undocumented APIs, with effective results. 1) How would I go about getting a listing of undocumented iPhone APIs? 2) Are there third-party off-the-cuff documentation for some of these APIs? ...
Two things are strange with NSDecimalAdd(). First, when I search for examples, people seem to provide parameters by reference like NSDecimalAdd(&foobar, &foo, &bar, ....) and so on. The second strange thing is this const. Why's the parameter saying it wants a constant there? And why does this not apply for result? NSCalculationError NSD...
I'm writing iPhone application which uses multiple views, each with own controller. They are loaded programmatically using initWithNibName: and released before switching to other controller, so only one view is visible at a time. After releasing view controller (I have checked that dealloc is called) not all memory is freed. I do release...

I was wondering how animations work in Cocoa Touch. For example: [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil]; [UIView setAnimationDuration:1.0]; view1.alpha = 1.0; view2.frame.origin.x += 100; [UIView commitAnimations]; How does UIView tracks the changes to the properties of the two views? I suspect that KVO is used, but does it real...
