I'm diving into iOS development while trying to grasp Objective-C and I'm still in that phase where, ever where I look, I see things that don't make any sense to a veteran C programmer like myself. In this Game Kit example on Apple's dev site, one of the header files declares a class interface, three different times... @interface Sessi...
I need to display some simple formatted text inside a small section of a View. The background needs to be transparent because there's a background gradient image. How I should I go about this? Maybe the Web View control will do the trick? thanks ...
Hello Does anyone know a tutorial hat explains how to shade an object to look like silver metal? (on iphone)? Maybe starting with a spere like in this: http://iphonedevelopment.blogspot.com/2009/05/opengl-es-from-ground-up-part-5-living.html Or can this not be accomplished without the new shaders in 2.0? Thanks Sebastian ...
I've been told to not worry about retain counts. I understand that I shouldn't decide to release or retain using conditional logic based on retainCount, but should I not worry about it? I thought these correspond to memory usage in some way. For instance, if I have a bunch of subviews of UIView that I've also put into an NSArray to be a...
Hi all. I am confronted with the double bind, that on the one hand for one of the 3rd party static libraries, my iPhone application uses, the linker flag -all_load has to be set in the application project- or target settings, otherwise the app crashes at runtime not finding some symbols, called internally from the lib, on the other hand...

Hi, I know some have already asked the question but so far, the answers are not really specific. Aparently apple have made the clic area of the NavigationBar larger than it really is, but I don't think it's supposed to be that large. In my app, there is a TableView right underneath the NavBar and you can clic all the way down to half ...
What pixels per inch settings do iOS 4 graphics need to be to support the high resolution display? Should I just use the standard 72, or should I specifically make images that are 320x480@163ppi and 640x960@326ppi? Or, should I just make images those dimensions and not worry about the resolution (i.e. leave it at the default 72)? I'm no...
I incorporated MGTwitterEngine in my iPhone app, with basic authentication, and have since incorporated Facebook Connect's classes for iPhone. I'm now trying to move to XAuth with MGTwitterEngine and OAuthConsumer, and I would like the user to have the same flow when tweeting as when posting on Facebook. With Facebook Connect, I can use...

How can I prevent this behavior, please? I'm working on a site where this is (very) bad; ...

My iphone application uses Core Data and a SQLite database; versions are being tracked using SVN. Adding data to the database is not reflected in the application. I make sure I delete the project out of the simulator and that the new database is added as a file to the project. I suspect the data is being cached in another location. Ple...

I feel like this ought to be simple, but after searching high and low I can't find an answer to my question. I'm developing page swiping funtionality similar to Mobile Safari, where one page will fade out as it is swiped out of view and the other page fades in. Each "page" is a plain, white UIView with a small UIImageView, displaying a...
