UIPickerView in Detailview with .PLIST - iphone

I've searched the web + stackoverflow for a solution.
I've an UITableView with information from a .plist file. The plist file have childs. Like the image.
plist http://www.afbeeldingenuploaden.nl/uploads/648899Schermafbeelding%202011-06-12%20om%2009.50.28.png
When i go to DetailView it will display information out of an UIPickerView that's included in the view. I want to display information from the child in the pickerview, the last level. Like the image.
plist1 http://www.afbeeldingenuploaden.nl/uploads/740501Schermafbeelding%202011-06-12%20om%2012.03.40.png
The problem is that i can't reach the last level from the plist in the UIPickerview with my code.
- (NSString *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView titleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component {
NSDictionary *dictionary = [tableDataSource objectAtIndex:row];
return [dictionary objectForKey:#"days"];
}
I use in my tableview for the detailview to reach the last level of the plist.
NSString currentLevel
Can anyone help me out with this, i'm stuck.

As I read the plist, it has an array of dictionaries first of which has a dictionary as one of its values at the second array level. Based on that, your method should be,
- (NSString *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView titleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component {
NSDictionary *dictionary = [tableDataSource objectAtIndex:row];
return [[dictionary objectForKey:#"New item"] objectForKey:#"days"];
}
This will work for the plist in the image. However if more members are added they should adhere to the same structure.

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
NSString *Path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSString *DataPath = [Path stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"Diyet.plist"];
NSDictionary *tempDict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:DataPath];
self.data = tempDict;
[tempDict release];
NSArray *tempArray = [[NSArray alloc] init];
self.tableDataSource = tempArray;
[tempArray release];
self.tableDataSource = [data objectForKey:#"Bitki"];
pickerView.delegate = self;
pickerView.dataSource = self;
}

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
// Configure the cell.
cell.textLabel.text = [[tableDataSource objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"name"];
cell.textLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
cell.textLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:16];
tableView.scrollEnabled = NO;
return cell;
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
NSDictionary *dictionary = [tableDataSource objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSArray *modelle = [dictionary objectForKey:#"DETAIL"];
if([modelle count] == 0) {
DetailController *dvController = [[DetailController alloc] initWithNibName:#"DetailController" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:dvController animated:YES];
dvController.names.text = [dictionary objectForKey:#"name"];
} else {
BootViewController *rvController = [[BootViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"BootViewController" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
rvController.currentLevel += 1;
rvController.currentTitle = [dictionary objectForKey:#"name"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:rvController animated:YES];
rvController.tableDataSource = modelle;
[rvController release];
}
}

How to keep the checkmark in a UITableView after the view disappears

I have a uitableview that's displaying multiple selections with a custom checkmark. When selected the rows value is save using NSUserDefaults. The problem is that despite the values being saved the checkmarks disappear from the table cell rows. I can't figure out why.
thanks for any help, I'm really stuck on this.
Here's the .h code:
#interface CategoriesViewController : UITableViewController {
NSString *selectedCategoryTableString;
NSString *jsonStringCategory;
int prev;
}
// arForTable array will hold the JSON results from the api
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSArray *arForTable;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray *arForIPs;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray *categorySelected;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *jsonStringCategory;
#property(nonatomic, retain) UIView *accessoryView;
#end
and the .m code:
#implementation CategoriesViewController
#synthesize jsonStringCategory;
#synthesize arForTable = _arForTable;
#synthesize arForIPs = _arForIPs;
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.arForIPs=[NSMutableArray array];
self.categorySelected = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[self reloadMain];
self.tableView.allowsMultipleSelection = YES;
}

jsonString = #"http:///******";
// Download the JSON

First of all your code has lots of memory leaks, please do use the static analyzer and/or instruments to fix them, few for them are pretty obvious like you initialized the SBJSON parser and did not release it, itemsTMP is another.
I have rewritten your code to be much more efficient and memory friendly:
#interface CategoriesViewController : UITableViewController
{
NSArray *_items;
NSMutableArray *_selectedItems;
UIImageView *cellAccessoryImageView;
}
#end
#implementation CategoriesViewController

{
[super viewDidLoad];
_selectedItems = [NSMutableArray new];
cellAccessoryImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"icon-tick.png"]] ;

// Create parser
SBJSON *parser = [SBJSON new];

Since in your table there is only one section. Try this approach and this will help you certainly.
In - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath write following code;
if([self.arForIPs containsObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:indexPath.row]]){
cell.accessoryView = cellAccessoryImageView;
} else {
cell.accessoryView = cellAccessoryNoneImageView;
}
And in - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath write code as below,
if([self.arForIPs containsObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:indexPath.row]]){
[self.arForIPs removeObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:indexPath.row]];
} else {
[self.arForIPs addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:indexPath.row]]
}

I have big delay using search in my UITableView

There is my problem, i have an application which have decent amount of data. My .plist file contain array of elements, it looks like this - Orange, proteins - 25, carbs - 40, fat - 50, etc.. Totally, each item contain 7 rows of sub-rows with data.
My tableview show all array displayed with sections, in one big massive tableview. In top of screen i have a search bar. When i tap search bar, and enter any letter, it show new array like this - M: Big Mac, Meat, Meals, etc.
So, before i reach 700+ elements in my array everything was just fine, but, when i added last 500 elements (my .plist file edited from 200 to 700 elements), i realize that when i tap search and enter any letter, i have big delay. First delay about 0,6 sec (when i tap search field), second delay after i press button in my keyboard (about 0,6 sec again). I think, that is because i add many items to my .plist.
Obviously, i don't want to reduce number of my objects in array. I guess i have "bad" code, and i ask you for any helpful advice. Please help me, i guess i need to improve it! There is my code, that contain my UITableView code and Search methods:

In your code every time you change the text in the search bar the searchTableView function is run. You will want to make sure this function is as quick as possible.
I see you are iterating over the list of NSDictionarys from the plist file in the function and building a search array. If the plist is large this is probably quite expensive of an operation to be doing on every text change.
for (NSDictionary *dictionary in listOfItems)
{
NSArray *array = [dictionary objectForKey:#"Products"];
[searchArray addObjectsFromArray:array];
}
I think if you moved this iteration to viewDidLoad and made searchArray a global variable you will notice some speed increases.
Hope this helps.
I think you should use SqliteDatabase to store so much data,and use SQL to search your data.Every time you touch search bar,all of your data alloc in a new NSMutableArray with the method
-(void)searchTableView
this is why when you touch the search bar , it will delay 0.6sec when your data is too much

When i'm trying to launch application on iphone it's not displaying TableView

So I have an application that have a tab in tab bar that display my TableView. Recently I modified it, and change my path for table from default
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:#"Food" ofType"plist"];
replacing it with this:
NSString *path = [[NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES)lastObject]stringByAppendingString:#"food.plist"];
So my problem is, it work pretty fine when I am launching it on Simulator in XCode, but, when im trying to launch it on my iphone I cant see any TableView appear, just empty search bar and top navigation bar.

I want to mention that I did some things with Project and Target settings, but, before that issue everything was just fine. I have an iPhone 4s if thats matter. And I did cut lot of my code rows just for make it easier to read (removed searching methods and selecting row methods).
Please help me!
I think the problem is with -
NSString *path = [[NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES)lastObject]stringByAppendingString:#"food.plist"];
you need to use -
NSString *path = [[NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES)lastObject]stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"food.plist"];
I think your problem might be that
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:#"Food" ofType"plist"];
searches "Food.plist" (notice the F)
and in
NSString *path = [[NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES)lastObject]stringByAppendingString:#"food.plist"];
you search for "food.plist" (notice low caps f)
Since your device is case sensitive and your Mac by default is not, I suspect that is your problem

Iphone xcode simulator crashes when I move up and down on a table row

I can't get my head round this. When the page loads, everything works fine - I can drill up and down, however 'stream' (in the position I have highlighted below) becomes not equal to anything when I pull up and down on the tableview. But the error is only sometimes. Normally it returns key/pairs.
If know one can understand above how to you test for // (int)[$VAR count]} key/value pairs

stream = (NSMutableDictionary *) [dataList objectAtIndex:row];
// stream value is (int)[$VAR count]} key/value pairs

Thanks for your time
You are both leaking and over-releasing the stream dictionary:
NSMutableDictionary *stream = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; // <-- Create a new dictionary
stream = (NSMutableDictionary *) [dataList objectAtIndex:row]; // <-- Overwrite the reference with another dictionary. Previous dictionary is lost...
...
[stream release]; // <-- You are releasing an object you don't have the ownership.
You should remove the dictionary creation as it is useless and the release as you don't own the object.
I didn't really understand the question, but...
You can test for number of values in a dictionary by:
if ([[myDictionary allKeys] count] == someNumber) {
// do something...
}

UITableView reloadData problem in UITabBar

I have a tabBar application that has ResultsNavController as 1 of my tabBar's Nav Controller, the View Controller is ResultsViewController and my tableViewPtr is connected to the tableView in IB which is under Main window.xib ResultsNavController/ResultsViewController/View/tableView.
After going to another tab to write to PureFun.plist, clicking on results view doesn't reload the table instantly with the new PureFun.plist. PureFun.plist was successfully written after i checked.
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[self.tableViewPtr reloadData];
}
#pragma mark Table view methods
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView {
return 1;
}
// Customize the number of rows in the table view.
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return [resultsDataArray count];
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"ResultsCellIdentifier";
UILabel *scoreStrLabel;
UILabel *dateStrLabel;
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
dateStrLabel = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10,5.0,200,43)] autorelease];
dateStrLabel.tag = DATESTR_TAG;
dateStrLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18.0];
dateStrLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
dateStrLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:dateStrLabel];
scoreStrLabel = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(250,5.0,50,43)] autorelease];
scoreStrLabel.tag = SCORESTR_TAG;
scoreStrLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18.0];
scoreStrLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentRight;
scoreStrLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:scoreStrLabel];
}
else {
scoreStrLabel = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:SCORESTR_TAG];
dateStrLabel = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:DATESTR_TAG];
}
NSDictionary *dict = [resultsDataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[formatter setDateFormat:#"h':'mma, EEE d MMM"];
NSDate *dateTested = [dict objectForKey:#"Date"];
NSString *dateStr = [formatter stringFromDate:dateTested];
NSString *scoreStr = [dict objectForKey:#"Score"];
scoreStrLabel.text = scoreStr;
dateStrLabel.text = dateStr;
return cell;

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *myPathDocs = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"PureFun.plist"];
NSArray *array = [[NSArray alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:myPathDocs];
self.resultsDataArray = array;
[array release];

}
To catch the changes of the current view controller in your UITabBarController, try using the following UITabBarControllerDelegate method:
- (void)tabBarController:(UITabBarController *)tabBarController didSelectViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController
{
// ...
}
This way you can trigger the reload manually. Sometimes, complex combinations of view controllers might get complex and hard to debug, and not all the "viewWillAppear:" methods are called as one thinks they should be.
I know my problem. my array wasn't reloaded in the viewWillAppear, so i copied the Setup codes in viewDidLoad to viewWillAppear and that solved it.
On a side note, UItableView problem may result from the data setup within DataSource, and [reload Data] might not be the main culprit in the case.
