Interface Builder (IB)
• Visually build interfaces.

• Change properties visually.

• Concept of wiring.

• Connect to instance
variables using outlets.

• Use actions to ﬁre methods.

iPhone Development
• Tools
• Objective-C
• Design Patterns
• Frameworks
• Data
• Resources

Tools

• Xcode IDE
• Simulator
• Instruments
• Shark


Objective-C
• Derived from the C programming language.
• Syntax from Smalltalk, and is Object based.
• Separates ﬁles for interface and
implementation.
• Uses message passing to object instances.
• Reference counting for memory model.
• Much more...

Objective-C 2.0

• Garbage collection. (sorry no iphone)
• Properties (dot syntax with classes)
• Faster enumeration


Objective-C Code
#import <Foundation/NSObject.h>

@interface Fraction: NSObject {
int numerator;
int denominator;
}

-(void) print;
-(void) setNumerator: (int) n;
-(void) setDenominator: (int) d;
-(int) numerator;
-(int) denominator;
@end


Objective-C Code
#import "Fraction.h"
#import <stdio.h>

@implementation Fraction
-(void) print {
printf( "%i/%i", numerator, denominator );
}
-(void) setNumerator: (int) n {
numerator = n;
}
-(void) setDenominator: (int) d {
denominator = d;
}
-(int) denominator {
return denominator;
}
@end


Objective-C Code
#import <stdio.h>
#import "Fraction.h"

int main( int argc, const char *argv[] ) {
// create a new instance
Fraction *frac = [[Fraction alloc] init];

// set the values
[frac setNumerator: 1];
[frac setDenominator: 3];

printf( "The fraction is: " );
[frac print];
printf( "n" );

// free memory
[frac release];

return 0;
}
