Objectively Speaking: A Crash Course in Objective-C

[jbx72487]

Nice introduction. Would however write:

[itemAtIndex setValue:@"DONE" forKey:@"category"];

instead of:

[itemAtIndex setValue:@"DONE" forKey:@"source"];

at the end, to avoid having the same quote shown more than once (otherwise it will just be shown again with 'DONE' as the source).

I agree with hwt. I believe you meant to say category, since that's how the predicate filters the quote array.

First of all, thanks for a great tutorial, learned alot from it.

But ... there is one thing that bothers me, and thats the SMNote UIDocument part,
how and when is it used, is it even required, i tried deleting it, and everything still works ?

Kind regards, iPoul

This is very, very helpful, and gives me a lot of answers for an app I'm working on.

Any chance you could do a follow-up on how the user can add quotes to the array?

Thanks

In your section titled "Heading in the Right Direction", second paragraph, second sentence should have the word monatomic changed to nonatomic.

Doing the tutorial in Xcode 4.4 and the section to create a subclass with UIdocument, UIdocument isn't an option. Was this taken out in Xcode 4.4 or ami I missing something. I know they changed the "File Owners" location but I found that, but not able to find the UIdocument.

TIA

Allen

oops, just realized the pull down for the subclass was a longer list. Never mind.

Hello!

As so many have said, thanks for the great tutorial!

I'm a little more than halfway through and am having a problem. I'm at the point where I've added the if statement to quote_btn_touch. When I select Mine and press Quote it does nothing. If I debug the if statement, it looks like the Segmented Control isn't returning 2.

Any suggestions? I've attached my project if you've got the time to look.

Many thanks

Rob

same here
( and my name is Rob too, maybe that's the go )
I"m playing around with NSLog in different places and self.quote_opt.selectedSegmentIndex is always returning zero regardless of the segment selected
I'll post what I find when i do

i've checked every character entry
and
i avoid pasting over from web pages as sometimes spaces are some high-numbered ascii character as opposed to %20
The sample downloadable code is more advanced again so i didn't use that either

there are a few errors i've noticed
Just above the Manual Labour graphic, there is some suggestion of an NS Mutable array;
"..This app is also going to store some famous quotes from movies. For this, you need a second array:.."

and I thought i had been done in spoiler alert type white text on white ground but no -
the same situation happened agin a little later on, but i cant find it right now

also doing exactly the instruction regarding plists just gave rise to corrupted file warnings
there needed to be a <dict\> somewhere at the top, not shown in your offering
I solved it by using Textedit to save out a separate file then use the File>Add FIle menu selection in Xcode

all these are no biggies, as it got me to turn some cogs in the old grey cells department

the biggest error is maybe in the title
"..A crash course in Objective-C" maybe should read " ..A course in Objective-C Crashes"

still very good, Linda
