How to save value single time in database in iphone - iphone

Question

i have an application in which i have 2 pages.one page is Register page and other is Login Page .
when a new user enter values in the register page and click on the submit the values are initially submitted to the server database.
When the same user come backs to the login page and enters his username and password and clicks on the submit button i get a JSON response on the console which returns the
{"TokenID":"fuUsat27to","isError":false,"ErrorMessage":"","Result":[{"UserId":"164","FirstName":"Indu","LastName":"nair","Email":"indu#itg.com","ProfileImage":null,"ThumbnailImage":null,"DeviceInfoId":"22"}],"ErrorCode":900}
tokenID,USerID and DeviceID for every user and which are different for every user.
when the submit button is pressed on the login page all the values are saved in sqlite database.
In my login page i have 2 function first function checks that if user enter username and password and click on the submit button,the values should come from server if value is present in server .
If value is present in server database then it will take value from server and put all data in sqlite database.
This is all first time process for a new user.After all this happens the next function should be called.
In this function work is only to check username and password present in sqlite database .
If username and password is present then open the page otherwise show an error message.

Answer 1

It's very simple. First get your userName and all the values related to the user from Sqlite database on tap of submit button. If all the values found nil then you proceed with the server process. if all the values found in database proceed directly to next screen of the application.
EDIT
Pseudo Code-
- (IBAction)SubmitTapped:(id) sender {
//Check if Database already contains userName and password
if(userName && password){
//user name and password found in database
//show next screen or authenticate user through web services as per your requirement.
}
else {
//First time login
//Validate user entered data like values of textfields.(Suggestion use DHValidation for validating textfields)
BOOL validate = [self validateData];//a function to validate data using DHValidation create yourself.
if(validate){
//save login credentails into database
//show next screen
}
}
}
I hope you understand now.
