Folks, coming from the Java/Swing world, I am sometimes puzzled by the UI programming on the iPhone. I've spent the last hours with Googling for information but it seems that I asked the wrong questions by thinking too much in Java. Could you please point me to resources to get more familiar with the GUI concepts to be able to achive th...

Does anybody know of a 3rd party profiler for XCode with the iPhone? I really don't like instruments, it's a pain to try to figure out whats going on. Allocations and leaks are fine, its just the CPU Sampler that I don't like. I really liked Shark but they have stopped updating that and it doesn't work with iOS4. ...

I have a tab bar application which loads a UITableView when one of it's buttons are selected. It seems to load the view controller however it doesn't seem to be populating the data. I have tried setting the cell.text = @"cell" (while setting the number of rows > 0) and an NSLog in the CellForRowAtIndexPath proves that in fact the functio...
I am using code from http://osmorphis.blogspot.com/2009/05/multiple-buttons-on-navigation-bar.html to implement multiple buttons in the navigation bar.

I am writing an app for the iPhone using cocos2d where I have 4 Sprites that are buttons. I figured I would implement the button functionality by using 2 sprites with different .png files representing the pressed/unpressed states. I thought this would be better than using an animation. In addition to detecting when the buttons are pre...
This question is for anyone that's had personal experience. The question is simple: Does Apple accept iPhone apps that haven't been written using their SDK? Apps can be written using different languages these days, and then compiled into iPhone apps. Does Apple even care? Edit iPhone apps can be created using Java and Flash CS5, which i...
Hello everyone, I'm currently using a UIAlertView at startup in my app with the UIAlertViewDelegate. It all works fine. The only problem is, I get the warning "type 'id ' does not conform to the 'UIAlertViewDelegate' protocol" every time I reference the App Delegate, giving me about 32 warnings.

Is it possible to use blocks instead of this? Basi...
