    iphone properties synthesize
    It’s clear that the @synthesize define the setter and getter for the object.But it is unclear to me that:@synthesize managedObjectContext = _managedObjectContext;What does it mean? And why not just implement it in the following way:@synthesize managedObjectContext;which seems much easier? Plus, is it related to the lazy programming, which means that you have to write the setter and getter urself?Hope that someone could help;)

    iphone objective-c uitableview uitabbarcontroller horizontalscrollview
    I’m a newbie for ios sdk.I’ve created a sample app.In that app I’m using a tableview and on clicking any cell in the table view i’m pushing a ScrollViewViewController( scrollView with pageControl ) on it.In ScrollViewViewController I’m loading the views which will have each a tabBarController. In the tabBar there are 5 tabBarItems.And on second tabBarItem corresponds to a viewContoller which has a tableView as subview. Here the problem is that on the second tabBarItem tableView is scrolling fine

    iphone uiscrollview
    I’ve been messing with the UIScrollView. Essentially I’ve put 7 views into it that are all taller than the contentSize. I set paging enabled to yes, and it’s working great horizontally. An unexpected side effect, however, was that it also has paging enabled vertically. My tall views get stopped in multiples of the height of the contentSize. I’d like it to scroll normally vertically, and be paged horizontally. Is this possible?Thanks

    iphone cocoa-touch nsurlconnection keep-alive
    I have a small bug in my client app that uses NSURLConnection. I have tracked it down to an unexpected connection keep-alive that seems to confuse the web server (probably a bug on the server side). The workaround would be to force-close all outstanding connections at a certain point. Can I do this somehow with NSURLConnection, i.e. something like[NSURLConnection closeAllIdleConnections];

    iphone cocoa-touch xcode uiwebview uiscrollview
    I need following view structure, with embedded 2 UIWebViews and 1 UIView (loaded from other xib).But the problem is, because this need to be inside UIScrollView, with same impression like this is single page. (only vertical scrolling need to be enabled).In those UIWebViews, html content is loaded from NSString.Size (height) of UIWebViews and child view is variable.Any advice, how to do that?

    iphone objective-c json deserialization
    I have a REST endpoint that returns a BOOL value depending on whether or not the server operation was successful. It returns the response body as simply true or falseWhen I try to decode the value from the server, I get the following error:Unexpected token, wanted ‘{‘, ‘}’, ‘[‘, ‘]’, ‘,’, ‘:’, ‘true’, ‘false’, ‘null’, ‘”STRING”‘, ‘NUMBER’.I have gone so far as to remove the server response the equation. Now I am just trying to get this code to work:NSString *result = @”true”; NSNumber *response

    ios objective-c methods selector nstimeinterval
    I’m working on an app, in which I would call a method, and pass in parameter an NSTimeInterval. My method is declared like this :-(void)MethodwithTime:(NSTimeInterval)t {NSLog(@”Test, T = %f”, t);… }I call it from a UIViewControllerlike this :[myObject performSelector:@selector(MethodwithTime:) withObject:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:t]];Because I read that NSTimeInterval is a double. But the NSLog test gives me some zeros… Test, T = 0.000000How could I fix it?Thanks !

    objective-c cocoa nsarray nsdictionary
    I have an NSArray of NSDictionaries. I need to check if there’s at least one occurrence of an object for a key of the NSDictionary in the NSArray. I do this by usingint i; for (i=0;i< [myArray count];i++) {if ([[[myArray objectAtIndex: i] objectForKey: myKey] isEqualToString: myString]) {found = YES;break;} else {found = NO;} }But I have a suspicion that there’s a better/faster alternative for it…Thanks

    From my understanding when an object method receives a block as a completion argument I can send “self” in the block:[object doMethodWithCompletion:^{[self doSomethingWhenThisMethodCompletes] }];but if this object “retains” the block (saves it for future use) I should send a “weak” copy of myself:__weak __typeof__(self) weakSelf = self; object.savedBlock = ^{[weakSelf doSomethingWhenThisBlockIsCalledFromWithinObject]; };but I have also seen variants such as:__weak __typeof__(self) weakSelf = sel

    objective-c exception exception-handling return-value
    I’m new to Objective-C, and I see that there are different conventions used about error handling. There are exceptions, but also there are situations where functions are just supposed to return nil in case of something going wrong.So, how do I decide when use which, and how to handle exceptions and unexpected return values? What are the best practices and red flags?

If I try to change the location of the UIImageView using the SetFrame command [myImageView setFrame:CgRectMake…], the image does not change position on the screen. Is the setFrame command enough ? Thanks.
