status, time)• A dock station is bellow (for main apps)• Multitasking is available but only for Apple apps• 3rd party apps are closed when Home button is

pressed.• Force quit is available (holding power button

and then home button)

17

• Cocoa Touch– User interface functionality, buttons, pickers, scroll bars, etc.– Wrappers to core services

• Media – Core Audio, audio recording/mixing– Open AL, Open GL– Video playback– PDF, JPG, PNG

iPhone OS (Layers)

19

• Core Services– File Access, Address Book– Threading– Core Location– Net Services, URL Utilities

• Core OS– Security, Sockets– Power Management– Certificates, File System

Model View Controller

20

Model View Controller

• Main Window: – App lives here– Not much is done here

• App Delegate– In charge of adding the view and controller to main

window• App View Controller

– App Logic: the brains of the application (optional)– App View: interface is designed here (GUI available)

21

Objective-C (History)

• Created early on 1980 by Brad Cox and Tom Love at StepStone

• In 1986 Steve Jobs left Apple and started NeXT– 1988 NeXT licensed Objective-C

• In 1996 Apple buys NeXT– Steve Jobs returns to Apple– Mac OS X is born

• It is object oriented– Layer on top of C

22

Objective-C (Syntax)

• Non object oriented operations identical to C• Object oriented follow the Smalltalk syntax• Methods are known as selectors• Calls are know as message• Example

– C++ call: object->method(arguments)– Objective-C message: [object selector: arguments]

23

Objective-C (Dot Syntax)

• Introduced in Objective-C 2.0• Getter

– int age = [person age];– int age = person.age;

• Setter– [person setAge: 25];– person.age = 25;

• Better example– [[person child] setAge: 1]; person.child.age = 1;

24

Objective-C (Methods)

• A dynamic data exists (i.e. id)• -(id) selectorName: arg1 label2: arg2 label3: ar3

– Args are of the form: (type) name– - denotes it is an instance method– + denotes a class method

• Selectors are of type SEL– Useful to see if a class responds to a method

• if ([obj respondsToSelector:sel]) {[obj performSelector:sel withObject:self];

}

25

Objective-C (cont.)

• Including/Importing libraries– #include: may cause cycles– #import: includes the file if it is not already included

• Memory management (Reference count)Making objects: Removing objects:

Retain ReleaseAlloc AutoreleaseInit DeallocCopy

26

Objective-C (Autorelease)

• Perfect for returning variables created at a method

• Methods that do not use autorelease– “alloc” and “copy”– We need to retain these objects

• All other methods that return an object include autorelease

• We must follow these conventions

27

Objective-C (Autorelease example)

• - (NSString *)fullName {NSString *result;result = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@“%@ %@”,

firstName, lastName];

return result;}

28

[result release];[result autorelease];

Memory leakageReturns nilOK

Objective-C (Implementation)

• Interfaces (protocols)– Work the same way that in JAVA

• Delegates– Are like protocols– Handle events code

• Classes – .h file (header)– .m file (implementation)

29

Objective-C (Properties)

• Convenient for accessing object attributes• Shortcut for getters/setters• Allow to specify

– Access (e.g. read-only)– Memory management policy (e.g. retain)

• atomic vs nonatomic– nonatomic provides quicker access to the field– atomic is better for when the field will be

read/write multiple times (multi threading)

30

Objective-C (Serialization)

• Known as archiving• Done by overriding write: and read: methods• Example:- (id) write: (TypedStream *) stream {

[super write:stream]; objc_write_types(stream, "i", &person.age);

return self; } - (id) read: (TypedStream *) stream {

[super read:stream]; objc_read_types(stream, "i", &person.age); return self; }

31

XCode• Replaced Project Builder• Organizes files• Includes an editor• Multiple testing targets• Useful for iPhone, MAC• Red link (app not build)

32

Interface Builder

• Works in collaboration with XCode• Good for developing the App View• Need to add keywords to the code

– IBOutlet translates to nothing– IBAction translates to void

• Organized by category of usage

33

SDK Demo

34

Using the sensors

• Camera• Microphone• Proximity• Accelerometer• Magnetometer• GPS• Making calls• Sending messages

35

Sensors on devices

36

Camera

• Use UIImagePickerController• Implement UIImagePickerControllerDelegateUIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];picker.delegate = pickerDelegate; //can be selfpicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;

Implement the following method in delegate (called after picture is taken)- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker

didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo;

37

Microphone

• Core Audio library (AVAudioRecorder)NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/dev/null"];NSDictionary *settings = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:

[NSNumber numberWithFloat: 44100.0], AVSampleRateKey, [NSNumber numberWithInt: kAudioFormatAppleLossless], AVFormatIDKey, [NSNumber numberWithInt: 1], AVNumberOfChannelsKey, [NSNumber numberWithInt: AVAudioQualityMax], AVEncoderAudioQualityKey, nil];

NSError *error; recorder = [[AVAudioRecorder alloc] initWithURL:url settings:settings

error:&error]; if (recorder) { [recorder prepareToRecord]; recorder.meteringEnabled = YES; [recorder record]; } else NSLog([error description]);

38

Proximity

• Turn them onUIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];device.proximityMonitoringEnabled = YES;BOOL state = device.proximityState;

• Set notifications[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver: selfselector: @selector(proximityChanged:)name: @"UIDeviceProximityStateDidChangeNotification"object: device]; …- (void) proximityChanged: (NSNotification *)note { UIDevice *device = [note object]; NSLog(@"In proximity: %i", device.proximityState);}

39

Accelerometer

• Range is [-0.5, 0.5]• Declare a class• Start accelerometer• Take measurements

40

Accelerometer (cont.)@interface AccelController:

UIViewController<UIAccelerometerDelegate> { UIAccelerometer *accelerometer;}@end//start- (void)viewDidLoad { accelerometer = [UIAccelerometer sharedAccelerometer]; accelerometer.updateInterval = 0.1; accelerometer.delegate = self; [super viewDidLoad];}

41

Accelerometer (cont.)- (void)accelerometer:(UIAccelerometer *)meter didAccelerate:(UIAcceleration *)acceleration { float x = acceleration.x; float y = acceleration.y; float z = acceleration.z; float angle = atan2(y, x); ...}

42

Magnetometer

• Core location, but available only for 3GSLocationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];locationManager.delegate = self;if( locationManager.locationServicesEnabled &&locationManager.headingAvailable) {[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];[locationManager startUpdatingHeading];} else {

...}

43

Magnetometer (Delegate)- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *) manager

didUpdateHeading:(CLHeading *) newHeading {if (newHeading.headingAccuracy > 0) {

CLLocationDirection theHeading =

newHeading.magneticHeading;...

}}//to show calibration panel-(BOOL)locationManagerShouldDisplayHeadingCalibration: (CLLocationManager *)manager { return YES;}

44

GPS

• Core locationlocationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];locationManager.delegate = self;if( locationManager.locationServicesEnabled ) {

[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];} else {

...}

locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer;

45

GPS (Delegate methods)- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager

didUpdateToLocation: (CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation{

if( newLocation != oldLocation ) {…}}

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didFailWithError: (NSError *)error {…}

46

Making calls, Emails, and SMS

• Calls, emails, and SMS are treated like URL services (UIApplication.sharedApplication)

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL: [NSURL URLWithString:@"tel://123-456-7890"]];

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"mailto:emailAdress?subject=testMail&body=its test mail."]];

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"sms:111"]];

47

App Examples

• Battery monitor• LocateMe• WhichWayIsUp• Accerlerometer
