I have little problem with my iphone application. I have such classes and interfaces:
CinemaMapAnnotation.h
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#interface CinemaMapAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation>{
CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
NSString *title;
NSString *subtitle;
}

#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString* title;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString* subtitle;
-(id)initWithCoordinate:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) c;
#end
CinemaMapAnnotation.m
#import "CinemaMapAnnotation.h"
#implementation CinemaMapAnnotation
#synthesize title, subtitle, coordinate;
-(id)initWithCoordinate:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) c{
self = [super init];
if (self) {
coordinate = c;
}
return self;
}
-(void) dealloc {
self.title = nil;
self.subtitle = nil;
[super dealloc];
}
#end

MKReverseGeocoder *reverseGeokoder;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet MKMapView *mapView;
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet MKReverseGeocoder *reverseGeokoder;
#end
CinemasMapController.m
#import "CinemasMapController.h"
#implementation CinemasMapController
#synthesize mapView, reverseGeokoder;
...
#pragma mark - Map Anotation
- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)theMapView viewForAnnotation:(id)annotation
{
static NSString* MyIdentifier = #"CinemaMapAnotation";
MKPinAnnotationView* pinView = (MKPinAnnotationView *)[mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:MyIdentifier];
if (!pinView)
{
MKPinAnnotationView* pinView = [[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc]
initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:MyIdentifier] autorelease];
pinView.draggable = NO;
pinView.animatesDrop = NO;
pinView.enabled = YES;
} else {
pinView.annotation = annotation;
}
if(annotation != mapView.userLocation){
pinView.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorRed;
pinView.canShowCallout = YES;
// Add a detail disclosure button to the callout.
pinView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
pinView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
} else {
pinView.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorGreen;
}
return pinView;
}
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView annotationView:(MKAnnotationView *)view calloutAccessoryControlTapped:(UIControl *)control {
NSLog(#"Not show button, so not work");
}
...
#end
My problem is, what all show and work, except not show rightCalloutAccessoryView button. mapView connected and have delegete to CinemasMapController on iphone view (also I try [mapView setDelegate:self]). So what I do wrong?
P.S. Code with line
pinView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
execute - checked by NSLog.
Here how its look like - no button:
In viewForAnnotation, in the if (!pinView) block, a new local pinView variable is being declared instead of getting assigned to the outer variable.
As a result, the outer pinView variable never gets set (stays nil) and so the map view creates the default annotation view which is what you see.

I am using following code to make custom AnnotationView.
My CustomPointAnnotation is a subclass of MKPointAnnotation with a setter/getter of Player
-(void) showMarkers
{
[self.mapView removeAnnotations:[self.mapView annotations]];
for (int i = 0 ; i < [self.playersArray count]; i ++)
{
Players *player = [self.playersArray objectAtIndex:i];
CustomPointAnnotation *annotationPoint = [[CustomPointAnnotation alloc] init];
[annotationPoint setPlayer:player];
if ([player.name isEqualToString:self.name.text])
{
NSLog(#"%# , %#" , player.name,self.name.text);
annotationPoint.coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake([player.latitude doubleValue]+.1, [player.longitude doubleValue]+.1);
[self.mapView addAnnotation:annotationPoint];
}
else
{
NSLog(#"%# , %#" , player.name,self.name.text);
annotationPoint.coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake([player.latitude doubleValue], [player.longitude doubleValue]);
[self.mapView addAnnotation:annotationPoint];
}
}
[self.mapView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
}
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didUpdateUserLocation:(MKUserLocation *)userLocation
{
// self.mapView.centerCoordinate = userLocation.location.coordinate;
myLocation = userLocation;
}
-(MKAnnotationView *) mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id<MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
if ([[annotation title] isEqualToString:#"Current Location"] )
{
return nil;
}
CustomAnnotationView *annView = [[CustomAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:#"players"];
CustomPointAnnotation *ptAnnotation = (CustomPointAnnotation *) annotation;
[annView setPlayer:ptAnnotation.player];
annView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"marker.png"];
annView.enabled = YES;
[annView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
return annView;
}
The problem comes at [annView setPlayer:ptAnnotation.player]; Unrecognized selector sent to instance
I am adding CustomPointAnnotation so it should convert it back. How can i solve this issue
OK, Im not sure how you declared the custom class, but it goes like this:
.h:
#interface CustomPointAnnotation: NSObject <MKAnnotation> {
}
#property (nonatomic) CLLocationCoordinate coordinate;
// Other properties like title, subtitle, etc.
.m
#implementation CustomPointAnnotation
#synthesize coordinate; // and other properties
#interface CustomPointAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation>
{
Player *player;
}
#property(nonatomic,retain) Player *player;
#property (nonatomic) CLLocationCoordinate coordinate;
Do not subclass MKAnnotation istead confirm to MKAnnotation protocal.
#interface CustomAnnotationView : MKAnnotationView
{
}
no need to set the player. when you need to access the player object access it using the annotation in CustomAnnotationView.
CustomPointAnnotation *annotation=self.annotation;
annotation.player;
I cant seem to figure this out with loading a custom map overlay from a url. As you can see its load the weather overlay from a URL that adds it to the mapview but it doesnt seem to be working and I cant see why it isnt working. Any help is appreciated.

I am doing some exercises with delegate, but now I have a problem with a UIView. This is my storyboard

BUT...this is the result: It show me only RED, GREEN and BLUE colors without gradation, for example: RGB (255,0,75) is THIS
and not THIS:
I don't know with it can't show me gradation...
Thanks!!
Marco Manzoni
You have to divide your slidervalues by 255.0.
[UIColor colorWithRed:red/255.0 green:green/255.0 blue:blue/255.0 alpha:1.0];
colorWithRed only accepts values 0.0-1.0
The situation is very similar to that described by this my other question, except that the delegation seems to work fine. I'm providing some more detail about my code. I'm just striping out non-relevant/trivial parts.

The issue is:
ReportScreen pushes (performs segue to, actually) the MapScreen.
If I have some data in the UITextView or if I set some state to the buttons in the ReportScreen and I get a memory warning while the MapScreen is pushed, once I go back to the ReportScreen, all those fields don't show those settings. Apparently textView.text is still set, and so are the states of the buttons, they're just not shown.
Question: why?
I have created a custom class for the MKAnnotation
#interface NeighborMapAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation> {
CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
NSString * title;
NSString * subtitle;
UIImageView * lcav;
}
#property (nonatomic, readonly) CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSString * title;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSString * subtitle;
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIImageView * lcav;
#end
NeighborMapAnnotation *neighbor = [[NeighborMapAnnotation alloc] initWithCoordinate:aCoordinate];
//imgView is some UIImageView that I already have
neighbor.leftCalloutAccessoryView = imgView;
- (MKAnnotationView *) mapView:(MKMapView *) mapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>) annotation
{
MKPinAnnotationView * annView = [[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:#"custom view"] autorelease];
annView.animatesDrop = YES;
annView.canShowCallout = YES;
UIButton* rightButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
annView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = rightButton;
annView.leftCalloutAccessoryView = [annotation lcav];//is this right?
return annView;
}
I want to be able to change the leftCalloutAccessoryView of the annotation to an image. What code should I change in my custom MKAnnotation class?
The leftCalloutAccessoryView property is a property of the MKAnnotationView class (not in the MKAnnotation protocol).
In the viewForAnnotation delegate method of MKMapView, you provide an MKAnnotationView for your annotations. In that method, check if the annotation type is your custom annotation type using isKindOfClass and set the view's properties as needed.
In your NeighborMapAnnotation class, you could store the imageView as a UIImageView property and set that when creating the annotation.
In viewForAnnotation, you would set the view's leftCalloutAccessoryView to the annotation's imageView.
Edit:
Here's one way to implement it...
Add an image property to your custom annotation class:
#interface NeighborMapAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation> {
...
UIImage *image;
}
...
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIImage *image;
#end
At the place where you create your annotations, set the image property:
NeighborMapAnnotation *neighbor = [[NeighborMapAnnotation alloc] initWithCoordinate:aCoordinate];
neighbor.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"someimage.png"];
//the image could be different for each annotation
...
In the viewForAnnotation delegate method (make sure map view's delegate is set):
- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)theMapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[NeighborMapAnnotation class]])
{
static NSString *AnnotationIdentifier = #"AnnotationIdentifier";
MKPinAnnotationView *pinView = (MKPinAnnotationView *)[mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:AnnotationIdentifier];
if (!pinView)
{
pinView = [[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:AnnotationIdentifier] autorelease];
pinView.canShowCallout = YES;
pinView.animatesDrop = YES;
}
else
{
pinView.annotation = annotation;
}
UIImageView *leftCalloutView = [[UIImageView alloc]
initWithImage:((NeighborMapAnnotation *)annotation).image];
pinView.leftCalloutAccessoryView = leftCalloutView;
[leftCalloutView release];
return pinView;
}
return nil;
}
thats great! i tried to extend my custom annotation class by few properties. but i had no access inside of viewForAnnotation delegate. what i´ve missed and learned here is that i have to cast the additional property on my custom annotation class. now it works! thank you! :-)
