What mistake is there in my code in iphone - iphone

I am new to i Phone programming.In this code i have store images in array that images i have added in bundle,that image i can able to display in thumbnail.Similarly i have create private folder in document directory there i have add 2 images that after that i retrieve that images in array but i am not able display private document directory images in thumbnail but i can able to display bundle images.In below code 2 localImages are there one of the localImages i have store bundle images and one more localImages i have store private document directory folder images.Now bundle images are displaying but i commented that bundle localImages.and i using private document directory images in same localImages that not working its showing some Expection.
paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,NSUserDomainMask, YES);
documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
savedImagePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"Tauky"];
NSLog(#"%#",savedImagePath);
NSError *error = nil;
if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:savedImagePath])
[[NSFileManager defaultManager] createDirectoryAtPath:savedImagePath withIntermediateDirectories:NO attributes:nil error:&error];
dirContents = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:savedImagePath error:&error];
localImages = [[NSArray alloc] init];
predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:#"self ENDSWITH '.jpeg'"];
imagesOnly = [dirContents filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate];
localImages = [NSArray arrayWithArray:imagesOnly];
NSLog(#"%#",localImages);
self.title = #"FGallery";
self.navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
localCaptions = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:#"images53", #"image57",nil];
//localImages =[[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: #"lava.jpeg",#"hawaii.jpeg",nil];
NSLog(#"%#",localImagess);
Expection is below code
- (void)reloadGallery
{
_currentIndex = _startingIndex;
_isThumbViewShowing = NO;
// remove the old
[self destroyViews];
// build the new
if ([_photoSource numberOfPhotosForPhotoGallery:self] > 0) {
// create the image views for each photo
[self buildViews];
// create the thumbnail views
[self buildThumbsViewPhotos];
// start loading thumbs
[self preloadThumbnailImages];
// start on first image
[self gotoImageByIndex:_currentIndex animated:NO];
// layout
[self layoutViews];
}
}
In console its show like this
self=(FGalleryViewController *)0x6877050
_cmd=(SEL)0x103cf reloadgallery
I not getting i tried so many ways what to do.Please help me
Thanks

You name your method reloadGallery, but you seem to be calling it as reloadgallery (notice the lowercase 'g'!). Change the call to reloadGallery and it should be fine.

How to find a .pdf or .txt or folder in iPhone?

I am working in iPhone Dropbox app, Using DropboxSDK to develop this, I get the files from My Drop-box account like APP, Getting Started.pdf, Photos, Public the i have stored this files in NSMutableArray and its show in TableView, when the user select the file in TableView, then i get that items from DidSelectRow delegate. then How to find that files? please help me
Thanks in Advance
You can use NSPredicate for this purpose.
For example:-
NSMutableArray *mutableArray = [array with objects];
NSPredicate *predictate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:#"%K == %d",#"isDefault",1];
NSArray *filterArray = [mutableArray filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predictate];
NSLog(#"filterArray :%#",filterArray);
OR also you can try with this :-
NSMutableArray *matches = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
NSFileManager *manager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSString *item;
NSArray *contents = [manager contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:[NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"Documents"] error:nil];
for (item in contents)
{
if ([[item pathExtension]isEqualToString:#".pdf"])
{
[matches addObject:item];
}
}

Image storage as byte code locally from XML parsing & display if it is stored Otherwise go for parsing.

I am having an app in which at the time of launcing the app XML parsing is giving Main category from URL like hp, dell, etc...I am displaying it in the Tableview.
Then on click of particular cell i can get the detail of main category means its subcategory like http://www.dealsbell.com/findcoupon.php?store=hp
Here also i am getting data properly after parsing.
But my concern over here is, in ( http://www.dealsbell.com/findcoupon.php?store=hp ) this link i am getting images.
Each particular subcategory will have a same image. So i want to do something like that the image if first time loaded from the URL then it will display image from parsing otherwise i would like to store that image as its byte code in folder / file / in any way in my device on first parsing.
If once the image is stored to the particular way in my device next time when i will go to see the subcategory it will first check this image is stored locally to my device or not.
If yes then it should go to the particular location to fetch this local image & display it to each cell otherwise will parse & display image.
I hope you are getting, what i want to ask.
Please guide me, how can this be possible & what is the way to get result.
If any example or link you can suggest, then it will be more efficient to me.
Thanks in advance.
There are probably two ways to achive this.
Get NSData out of Image and hold that in UserDefaults or database.
Dump image in application folder and pick image from that place.
So whenever you try to load image for subcatogory check at one of place and if present use that. IF in case you have stored image and if any updated image comes,then remove previous copy and store new one.

Writing and reading text files on the iPhone

As a practice, I am trying to write an app similar to the built-in notes app.
But I cannot figure out how to save the file and display it in a UITableView.
Right now, I have a UITextView that the user can type in. I also have a save button.
When the user taps the save button, I want to save it, and later have it displayed in a table view.
I am very lost so if you know of any relevant tutorials etc. it would be greatly appreciated.
As noted by the commenters in the real world, you're definitely going to want to look at Core Data or some other data persistence strategy. If you're dead set on pursuing this as a learning experience, something like this should solve your problem:
- (void)writeStringToFile:(NSString*)aString {
// Build the path, and create if needed.
NSString* filePath = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) objectAtIndex:0];
NSString* fileName = #"myTextFile.txt";
NSString* fileAtPath = [filePath stringByAppendingPathComponent:fileName];
if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:fileAtPath]) {
[[NSFileManager defaultManager] createFileAtPath:fileAtPath contents:nil attributes:nil];
}
// The main act...
[[aString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] writeToFile:fileAtPath atomically:NO];
}
- (NSString*)readStringFromFile {
// Build the path...
NSString* filePath = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) objectAtIndex:0];
NSString* fileName = #"myTextFile.txt";
NSString* fileAtPath = [filePath stringByAppendingPathComponent:fileName];
// The main act...
return [[[NSString alloc] initWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:fileAtPath] encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] autorelease];
}
The easiest way to save text is using NSUserDefaults.
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:theText forKey:#"SavedTextKey"];
or, if you want to have the user name each "file" or be able to have multiple files
NSMutableDictionary *saveTextDict = [[[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:#"SavedTextKey"] mutableCopy] autorelease];
if (saveTextDict == nil) {
saveTextDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
}
[saveTextDict setObject:theText forKey:fileName];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:saveTextDict forKey:#SavedTextKey"];

iPhone - track back button event

I have a tableView which lists the contents of my document directory. I have some zip files in that. If I touch a file in the tableView, the corresponding zip file is unzipped and extracted in a temporary directory(newFilePath in my case). The contents unzipped is listed in the next tableView. When I touch the back button, the contents in the directory is listed again.
For example, consider that I have four zip files in my document directory.
songs.zip, videos.zip, files.zip, calculation.zip
When I run the application, all the four files are listed in the tableView. When I touch songs.zip, this file is extracted in the newFilePath and its contents are pushed to the next tableView. When I touch back, the previous tableView, i.e, the four files in the document directory are listed again. Everything works perfect.
The problem is, the extracted files in the newFilePath remains there itself. They occupy the memory unnecessarily. I want them to be removed from that path when I touch the back button, i.e, I want to make newFilePath empty when the back button is touched.
I tried for it. But, no use. I tried removeItemAtPath: method in viewWillAppear: and also in viewWillDisappear:. But it didnt work in both the cases.
Is there any other method to track the action of the back button? I want an event to take place when the back button is touched. So please help me by sharing your ideas. Here is my code for your verification.
This is my didSelectRowAtIndexPath:
NSString *filePath = //filePath
if([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:filePath]) {
NSLog(#"File exists at path: %#", filePath);
} else {
NSLog(#"File does not exists at path: %#", filePath);
}
ZipArchive *zip = [[ZipArchive alloc] init];
NSString *newFilePath = //newFilePath
[[NSFileManager defaultManager] createDirectoryAtPath:newFilePath withIntermediateDirectories:NO attributes:nil error:nil];
BOOL result = NO;
if([zip UnzipOpenFile:filePath]) {
//zip file is there
if ([zip UnzipFileTo:newFilePath overWrite:YES]) {
//unzipped successfully
NSLog(#"Archive unzip Success");
result= YES;
} else {
NSLog(#"Failure To Extract Archive, maybe password?");
}
} else {
NSLog(#"Failure To Open Archive");
}
iDataTravellerAppDelegate *AppDelegate = (iDataTravellerAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
//Prepare to tableview.
MyFilesList *myFilesList = [[MyFilesList alloc] initWithNibName:#"MyFilesList" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
//Increment the Current View
myFilesList.CurrentLevel += 1;
viewPushed = YES;
//Push the new table view on the stack
myFilesList.directoryContent = [AppDelegate getTemporaryDirectoryItemList:newFilePath];
[myFilesList setTitle:detailedViewController.strName];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:myFilesList animated:YES];
[myFilesList release];
Thank you for your answers.
for creating your own action you need custom back button.But i think viewWillDisAppear also can do solve your problem.
use this code for solving your problem
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectoryPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *databaseFile = [documentsDirectoryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"newFilePath"];
NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
[fileManager removeItemAtPath:databaseFile error:NULL];
This may help you.
Edit:
NSString *documentsDirectoryPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *secondaryDirectoryPath = [secondaryDirectoryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"secondary"];
NSString *databaseFile = [documentsDirectoryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"newFilePath"];
use these lines in your code if you have directory inside the document directory.
you can add the custom back button on Navigation Bar. Create the method, which will fire on click event of Back button.

Loading a web page in iphone and check history

Pseudo code
pageUrl = "http://www.google.com"
if(pageUrl == never Downloaded)
Download pageUrl
else
{
Display Saved Version
Mean while download pageUrl
When done display new version
}
How can I do something like this in objective C for a UIWebview?
Also what's the best way to save web pages for this scenario? PList, SQLite?
Plist is the best way to solve your problem.
iPhone/Objective-c can access very quickly to plist file as compare to SQLite Database.
Let me give you some sample code.
See - edit After some time.
Edit :
Steps for Creating project & connecting web-view
Create New Project -> View Based Application.
Give name "yourProjName" ( up to you what you give )
Open "yourProjNameViewController.xib"
Drag & drop UIWebView
Open "yourProjNameViewController.h" File
Place a variable IBOutlet UIWebView *wView;
Connect in interface builder
Steps for adding Property list file to your project
Expand Resources Group under your project tree
Right click on "Resources" -> Add -> New File
Select Template Category - osx -> Resource
Select Property List file
Give file name "LoadedURL.plist"
Change Root type to Array
Save "LoadedURL.plist" file
Now place following code to "yourProjNameViewController.m" file.
#import "yourProjNameViewController.h"
#define documentsDirectory_Statement NSString *documentsDirectory; \
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); \
documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
#implementation WebViewLoadViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// your url to load
NSString *strToLoad=#"http://www.mail.yahoo.com";
// file management code
// copy file to documents directory
documentsDirectory_Statement;
NSFileManager *fm=[NSFileManager defaultManager];
if(![fm fileExistsAtPath:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"LoadedURL.plist"]]){
[fm copyItemAtPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"LoadedURL" ofType:#"plist"]
toPath:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"LoadedURL.plist"]
error:nil];
}
// array from doc-dir file
NSMutableArray *ar=[NSMutableArray arrayWithContentsOfFile:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"LoadedURL.plist"]];
// check weather file has url data or not.
BOOL fileLocallyAvailable=NO;
NSString *strLocalFileName=nil;
NSUInteger indexOfObject=0;
if([ar count]>0){
for (NSDictionary *d in ar) {
if([[d valueForKey:#"URL"] isEqualToString:strToLoad]){
fileLocallyAvailable=YES;
strLocalFileName=[d valueForKey:#"FileName"];
break;
}
indexOfObject++;
}
}
if(fileLocallyAvailable){
NSDictionary *d=[ar objectAtIndex:indexOfObject];
strLocalFileName=[d valueForKey:#"FileName"];
} else {
NSMutableDictionary *d=[NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[d setValue:strToLoad forKey:#"URL"];
NSString *str=[[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:strToLoad]];
[str writeToFile:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02i.htm",[ar count]]]
atomically:YES
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
strLocalFileName=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02i.htm",[ar count]];
[d setValue:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02i.htm",[ar count]] forKey:#"FileName"];
[ar addObject:d];
[ar writeToFile:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"LoadedURL.plist"]
atomically:YES];
}
NSURL *u=[[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath:[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:strLocalFileName]];
NSURLRequest *re=[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:u];
[wView loadRequest:re];
[u release];
}
