Objective-C Recipes provides a problem
solution approach for dealing with key aspects of
Objective-C programming, ensuring you have the
indispensable reference you need to successfully execute
common programming tasks. You will see how to use the
unique features of the Objective-C programming language,
the helpful features of the Foundation framework, and
the benefits of using Objective-J as an alternative.
Solutions are available for a range of problems,
including:
- Application development with Xcode
- Working with strings, numbers and object
collections
- Using foundation classes like NSArray, NSString,
NSData and more
- Dealing with threads, multi-core processing and
asynchronous processing
- Building applications that take advantage of dates
and timers and memory management
- How to use Objective-C on other platforms
Objective-C Recipes is
an essential reference for every Objective-C programmer,
and offers solutions in a concise and easy-to-follow
manner. Matthew Campbell has trained over 800 new iOS
developers at the Mobile App Mastery Institute and iOS
Code Camp, and here brings his expertise to offer you
the ability to use and exploit Objective-C to get the
most out of all of your projects.
