Hi
What's the proper way to force an iOS device to set the orientation to one of
UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft
UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight
UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait
UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown
?
So what is the correct way of programmatically setting the interface
orientation in iOS devices?
In your UIViewController write something like this (example below is to force
the app into landscape mode only):
// Override to allow orientations other than the default portrait orientation.
-
(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication]
setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft];
return YES;
} else if (interfaceOrientation ==
UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication]
setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight];
return YES;
}
return NO;

Re: UIButton variations?

With the UIButton.contentStretch property you can subdivide your button graphic into distinct areas to stretch or not allowing your button to grow as desired. There are 4 distinct states you can define for each custom button allowing you to have a different image for normal, highlighted, disabled, and selected. In 90% of the cases, the custom button style and properties can satisfy your custom button needs, but if not then you can still subclass. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

iOS Popup Menus?
How do you create the popup (and scrollable) contextual style menus that are in Safari's when you click the Bookmark / History button? I can't find a prebuilt class in the UIKit that uses that specific behavior, and find it amazing that there isn't one available. At this point, I am guessing that I can create one with a custom UIView and floating that on top of the main menu that uses a UITableView for the menu items. But there are a number of basic issues that I am not sure how to approach, such as the fact that clicking outside the menu would close the menu. (Do I push a full window sized transparent UIView with the menu as a subview of that and handle clicks that way?)

NSCountedSet and NSString values question
I am keeping track of the number of times an object is accessed by key value within a NSDictionary. I am using a manager type class where I request the object from the manager, and it accesses the NSDictionary for the object, therefore I am using a method such as this: - (CGImageRef) imageNamed:(NSString *)name; My question is basically how does NSCountedSet handle string values, are they interpreted by their string values or by their object values? If they are by object, then I need to do more work to pull the exact key object from the NSDictionary. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

NSCountedSet inherits from NSSet and NSMutableSet, both of which use the hash and isEqual: methods of contained objects. See the reference docs for each. In general, docs for a class do not repeat descriptions from a superclass, unless there is a difference. So to fully understand what any class does, you must often read the superclass's docs as well as the docs of the class you wish to use. Thank you for your replies... I guess the issue is really more related to the fact that I didn't understand how NSStrings work with the -isEqual: function. I have been reading up on it, and have read some interesting things including: http://www.drobnik.com/touch/2009/11/the-world-on-an-nsstring/ The author of the article is somewhat unsure whether using -isEqual: is safe, but after looking at the [NSString hash] documentation I feel confident in my current implementation. Short answer... yes.

CGImage / UIImage non destructive scaling possible
Reading up on the docs for both CGImage and UIImage, I see that there is a scale property, but there doesn't appear to be any way to modify the scale factor of an CGImage without resampling (and therefore changing the pixels). Below is a comment from the UIImage.scale (property) read-only, and if I want to modify the scale of an open CGImage is to save it to disk, and reopen it using the scale factor tag as described below... is this the only way? iPhone 4.0 Library notes from UIImage.scale: If you load an image from a file whose name includes the @2x modifier, the scale is set to 2.0. If the filename does not include the modifier but is in the PNG or JPEG format and has an associated DPI value, a corresponding scale factor is computed and reflected in this property. You can also specify an explicit scale factor when initializing an image from a Core Graphics image. All other images are assumed to have a scale factor of 1.0. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Exit( ) necessary? (oalTouch sample project)
I have a question about the oalTouch example project.
Specifically the sample code uses the exit( ) function after encountering an
error such as in the sample code below.
I looked up the OpenAL documentation for alGetError( ) and no where does the
OpenAL documentation for alGetError( ) mention that an error returned is
considered fatal and the program must exit.
So what I am wondering is if this is simply a lazy example from Apple
(without any nice UI warning errors), and should not actually affect the
performance of the app. Obviously if there is an error loading the sound
resource, the sound cannot play.
But I am asking this here anyways in the case that there is actually an issue
where exit( ) is required.
Excerpt from oalTouch sample
project
- (void) initBuffer
{
ALenum error = AL_NO_ERROR;
ALenum format;
ALsizei size;
ALsizei freq;
NSBundle* bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
// get some audio data from a wave file
CFURLRef fileURL = (CFURLRef)[[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[bundle
pathForResource:@sound ofType:@caf]] retain];
if (fileURL)
{
data = MyGetOpenALAudioData(fileURL, size, format, freq);
CFRelease(fileURL);
if((error = alGetError()) != AL_NO_ERROR) {
NSLog(@error loading sound: %x\n, error);
exit(1);
}
// use the static buffer data API
alBufferDataStaticProc(buffer, format, data, size, freq);
if((error = alGetError()) != AL_NO_ERROR) {
NSLog(@error attaching audio to buffer: %x\n, error);
}
}
else
NSLog(@Could not find file!\n);

Yes, this is what I was planning for image memory estimates. Should I also add in something for a image header especially if I use a lot of tiny images? I was thinking something like +64 to +128 bytes to the estimate. Also I think I will be storing the UIImage object in resource manager but only exposing the CGImageRef as read-only data. I would assume that most of the header properties would be mapped from the CGImageRef to the UIImage. For audio this is more difficult as it is unlikely that the entire file will be loaded into memory, or even that a significant amount of it will be loaded into memory unless it is playing (in which case you do not want to unload it).

iPhone resource cache - memory question
I am designing a slightly smarter resource cache that purges less frequently
used resources instead of a purge all when getting an UIApplication delegate
applicationDidReceiveMemoryWarning: message. I know the target (currently)
is 20 MBs (although that could change with future hardware). The problem I am
running into is finding out if I have purged enough.
Is there a method to get the current app memory allocation for the iPhone?
Also is there a constant that I can compare it to (memory value to issue
warning)?
This would allow me to do a loop something like:
while (appCurrentMemory issueMemoryWarningAtValue) {
[self purgeOldestAccessedObject];
}

From my understanding of the documentation, both of these functions are only to create a CFUUID object based on either raw bytes or a string format of an EXISTING UUID.

Questions about 2D drawing in Cocoa
I am fairly new to Cocoa, and so I have 2 questions I would appreciate some feedback.

(I prefer CG drawing because more available options and easier to share code between desktop and iPhone apps). 2. Secondly, for several of my desktop apps I am working on I need to use a custom designed Tab interface. This interface is just to control the tabs and the view does NOT contain the mechanism to switch between tabbed views (will use borderless NSTabView for that). I want to have a containing class which holds the tab button cells, while the containing class only manages the position of the tab button cells, and encapsulates messages when each button is pushed. Are there any code examples like this that you know of? ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Why not follow what someone else suggested earlier in the thread, and the

As soon as you start sprinkling retains and releases throughout your code,

exactly whats going on...
- (void)setFields:(NSMutableArray *)newFields {
NSLog( @-setFields, old fields value: %p with new value %p, fields,
newFields );
[fields autorelease];
fields = [newFields mutableCopy];
}
When calling setFields, you are then responsible for releasing the newFields
NSMutableArray you created in your sample code, because [newFields mutableCopy]
increments the ref counter.
