Calling a Cocoa library from C

Newb question. I need to create an OS X Cocoa library that is going to be called from a C program. The C program's interface will be simple, along the lines of: retval=get_float_data(&float1,&float2); where get_float_data() is a function that resides in the Cocoa library and invokes Objc co

iOS camera image resolution selection

When retrieving an image from the iPad's rear camera, I remember there being an API that would allow you to select from a number of resolutions, ranging from thumbnail up to native. Where would I find this information? I'm trying to find out, among other things, if the iPad can return a 640x480

I have a, iOS 4.3.3 UIView that is touch-enabled. When my -touchesBegan:withEvent: method gets called, I can't figure out how to differentiate when the user touched the screen with one finger or with two. Either way, I receive this: timestamp: 423888 touches: {( phase: Began tap count: 1

How would I go about drawing a terminus at the end of a path? I'm drawing a path in an overlay to a MKMapView, but I would like to somehow designate the end point of the path to differentiate it from the rest of the path. CGContextAddPath(context,path); CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor

iOS: multiple view controllers, one nib?

I'm writing an iPad app that has its main screen subdivided into 4 equal regions, each with a UIView, all defined in one IB nib. I have a dedicated view controller class for each view. When I instantiate the view controller class for each quadrant's view with -initWithNibName:bundle:, I have to

Creating an iPad-specific xib in IB

I'm making an iPad-only view-based app. The large screen size of the iPad will be split into 4 views, each operating independently, so the iPad is a perfect fit. However, in Interface Builder, the default xibs that are created with the project appear to be iPhone-sized. How do I get IB to offer

Hi, I have a very basic iPhone app. It consists of an MKMapView and a UIToolBar at the top. It works, but when I rotate the iPhone, the toolbar goes off to parts unknown and a blank area appears above the map view. How do I correlate/sync the autorotation of the map view with the toolbar? iOS 4.
