Review of Vides 10-12 • Many of the slides to follow come directly from the Fall 2011 Stanford CS193p slide deck. • Some come from earlier versions of CS193p which I think were a bit clearer than the current deck COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Video 10 – Grand Central Dispatch • UI should always be responsive • Put time consuming tasks in a separate queue • UI must run in main queue • GCD – another example of Apple making a difficult task quite easy • Linear programming of multiple queues • Rich interface with many complexities • Most common scenario is quite simple COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Blocks Simplified • A set of statements bracketed by { and } similar to a method or if statement, Preceded by carat ^ ^{UIImage*image = [UIImageimageWithData:imageData]; self.imageView.image= image; self.imageView.frame= CGRectMake(0, 0, image.size.width, image.size.height); self.scrollView.contentSize= image.size;} • Method’s local variables stay in scope • For the most part, can be treated like an object (typedef) • NSArray methods for enumerating with blocks COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Grand Central Dispatch • C API, more () • Runs different queues in separate threads • Easy process • Create queue • Dispatch queue with block • Release queue • Must keep UI in main threat • Inside above queue, dispatch UI block within separate block. • This is all you will need for Assignment #5 COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
GCD Memory Management Issues • Avoid circular references to self as it will leak memory • _ _ weak MyClass *weakSelf = self; • Local variables declared in method before blocks still in scope • Read only unless tagged with _ _ block _ _ block BOOL stoppedEarly = NO; COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Video 11 – Core Location / MapKit • Two major frameworks that often go together • Core Location and MapKit • MapKit is the heart of assignment #5 • Not part of default linking, but very easy to add COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Core Location • Basic object is CLLocation • @property • coordinate • altitude • horizontalAccuracy / verticalAccuracy • timestamp • speed • course • Highly abstracted from backend processing • Many automatic callbacks COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
MapKit • Base Element is MKMapView • Complete map in Class • Abstracts underlying technologies • Can be layered with other information • Rich set of annotations COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
MKAnnotation • Drop Pins and configurable callouts • Similar in many ways to UITableViewCell • Can use standard MKAnnotationViews or embellish with custom views COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
Video 12 – Persistence • Multiple forms of persistence • Property Lists (such as NSUserDefaults) • Archiving Objects • Storing things in the file system • SQLite • Core Data • Core Data is at the heart of Assignment #6 and very important • Conceptually difficult, but way simplified from previous years. COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
iOS File System • Each application has its own sandbox for protection • Actual binary along with shipped resources in application bundle directory - which is read only • Copy prototype documents to documents directory for modification • Cache directory for recreatable objects • Directory choice important for backup • Watch lecture (short) even if not doing extra credit • Core Data will use small part of this technology COMP 446 / ELEC 446 - Week 7
