This code worked fine in iOS7. After I upgraded my device to iOS8, the program was blocked and imagePickerView didn't dismiss.
Is this a bug in iOS8? Anyone can help me?
I am working on a project that has a simple tableview with detail view.
Data source is a plist. I am trying to allow user input to be saved into the plist and shown in tableview. i have created a add view controller which gets presented and dismissed modally and has two text fields which allow the user to add the name of the city and name of the states, also a text field to input description.
Problem: how to save this data to my existing plist and show it in the tableview. Here is my code for the table view:
#implementation TableViewController
#synthesize content, searchResults;
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
content = [[NSArray alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"Data" ofType:#"plist"]];
}
- (IBAction)add;
{
AddViewController* controller = [[AddViewController alloc] init];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
if (tableView == self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {
return [self.searchResults count];
} else {
return [self.content count];
}
}
- (void)filterContentForSearchText:(NSString*)searchText scope:(NSString*)scope
{
NSPredicate *resultPredicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat: #"SELF['city'] BEGINSWITH[c] %# ", searchText];
searchResults = [[content filteredArrayUsingPredicate:resultPredicate] retain];
}
-(BOOL)searchDisplayController:(UISearchDisplayController *)controller shouldReloadTableForSearchString:(NSString *)searchString
{
[self filterContentForSearchText:searchString
scope:[[self.searchDisplayController.searchBar scopeButtonTitles]
objectAtIndex:[self.searchDisplayController.searchBar
selectedScopeButtonIndex]]];
return YES;
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle: UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier: CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}
if (tableView == self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {
cell.textLabel.text = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"city"];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"state"];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:[[self.searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityImage"]];
} else {
cell.textLabel.text = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"city"];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"state"];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:[[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityImage"]];
}
return cell;
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (tableView == self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {
[self performSegueWithIdentifier: #"showDetails" sender: self];
}
}
-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:#"showDetails"]) {
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow];
DetailViewController *DVC = [segue destinationViewController];
if ([self.searchDisplayController isActive]) {
DVC.cityImageString = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityImage"];
DVC.cityTextString = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityText"];
DVC.cityNameString = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"city"];
DVC.stateNameString = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"state"];
} else {
DVC.cityImageString = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityImage"];
DVC.cityTextString = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"cityText"];
DVC.cityNameString = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"city"];
DVC.stateNameString = [[self.content objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"state"];
}
}
}

i know there are tons of almost similar questions and believe me i have looked at so many of them and i think i am hitting the wall with this one and i cant think of a proper way to do this. it may be so simple but for the life of me i cant figure this out and thats why i am trying to ask for help. i truly appreciate any help i can get. if needs be i can place the sample project on git hub for ease of access. also the project is built in ios 6 and the latest Xcode.
P.S. here is the link to the project on git hub: https://github.com/AdrianPhillips/TableSearch
I can't find your code that do the actual "save" work. I guess it should be in the UIAlertView delegate,right ? And you did not tell us what's your problem. Following code maybe what's you seeking.
[content writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES]
Another reminder is: you should NOT save the plist back to main bundle, save it to Documents or Cache or other folder.
Just as every one has pointed out you can not write to the plist that is in your main bundle. You need to copy it from the bundle to your application document directory. Then you can just init from and write to the path in your documents directory. The other issue you have, is that nothing is communicating the new data from the AddViewController back to the TableViewController. You should create a protocol and delegate for your AddViewController.
For all the gore details see my pull request on GitHub.
https://github.com/GayleDDS/TableSearch.git
You have to copy the plist to the Documents folder first. You can't edit it into the original app folder. You can use this class to do this:
- (void) CreatePlistCopyInDocuments:(NSString *)plistName {
// First, test for existence.
BOOL success;
NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSError *error;
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *writablePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:plistName];
success = [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:writablePath];
if (success) {
return;
}
// The writable file does not exist, so copy from the bundle to the appropriate location.
NSString *defaultPath = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath] stringByAppendingPathComponent:plistName];
success = [fileManager copyItemAtPath:defaultPath toPath:writablePath error:&error];
if (!success) {
NSAssert1(0, #"Failed to create writable file with message '%#'.", [error localizedDescription]);
}
}
You have just to pass the plist name to it.
Then you have to load it into some NSMutableDictionary like this:
NSString *documents = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingString:#"/Documents"];
NSString *plistInDocuments = [documents stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"UserData.plist"];
NSMutableDictionary *plistData = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:plistInDocuments];
After you have updated the values for the dictionary, you have to write the file back to the documents like this:
[plistData writeToFile:plistInDocuments atomically:YES];
After picking image from UIImagePickerController I want to Tweet it but there is error!
Warning: Attempt to present <SLTwitterComposeViewController: 0x210d84b0> on <UITabBarController: 0x1fd67650> while a presentation is in progress!
P.S
This is tabbar application (4 tabbars)
All code:
-(void)useCamera:(id)sender
{
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]){
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker =[[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
imagePicker.mediaTypes = #[(NSString *) kUTTypeImage];
imagePicker.allowsEditing = NO;
[self presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:nil];
_newMedia = YES;
}
}
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info{
NSString *mediaType = info[UIImagePickerControllerMediaType];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
if ([mediaType isEqualToString:(NSString *)kUTTypeImage]) {
[self buttonTweet:info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage]];
}
}
- (IBAction)buttonTweet:(id)sender {
SLComposeViewController *composeController = [SLComposeViewController composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter];
[composeController setInitialText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"#this is tweet text"]];
[composeController addImage:sender];
[composeController addURL: [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.abc.com"]];
[self presentViewController:composeController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
You are presenting a new view controller while the old one is still disappearing. You can present the new one upon completion of the other animation by doing it like this:
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
if ([mediaType isEqualToString:(NSString *)kUTTypeImage]) {
[self buttonTweet:info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage]];
}
}];
When I click “play movie” the mpmovieplayer presents itself for half a second and I see it’s loading movie and the controls are there, but then it returns to main screen without playing the video.
How do I fix this?
Edit:
I have changed code and now the player stays up but is stuck on loading, it doesn’t play movie.
IS the problem: not preparing the movie for play? Or not stopping movie in background and then restarting it?
#import "ViewController.h"
#implementation ViewController
#synthesize moviePlayer;

[imagePicker setDelegate:self];
imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.mediaTypes =
[UIImagePickerController availableMediaTypesForSourceType:
imagePicker.sourceType];
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePicker animated:YES];
{
[imagePicker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
}
- (void)viewDidUnload
{
[super viewDidUnload];
// Release any retained subviews of the main view.
//[imagePicker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

I was using UIImagePickerController without any problem.
Before when I was taking a picture in the landscape mode, the picture in the Preview (when the buttons Retake and Use Photo were present) was always automatically rotated so as to appear correctly in the portrait mode.
But now when I use the UIImagePickerController the preview mode does not rotate the picture anymore.
Where can I activate or desactivate this mode?
Here is my code:
- (IBAction)getCameraPicture{
//Create an UIImagePickerController to be able to take a picture
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
picker.allowsImageEditing = NO;
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
- (IBAction)selectExistingPicture{
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary]) {
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;//Here is specified the fact that the picker source is the library
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
}
else {
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Error accessing photo library" message:#"Device does not support a photo library" delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"Drat!" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
[alert release];
}
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo {
int imageCase=0;
UIImage *imageSaved=rotateImage(image);
UIImage* imageNormal =scaleImage(imageSaved,imageCase);
imageView.image = imageNormal;
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker {
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
I really need to at least understand what is happening so any help would be really appreciated even if it is not the solution!
Thanks folks!
one possibility is that you need to call
[[UIDevice currentDevice] beginGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];
