Error: Whitelist rejection in Phonegap

Notice: This answer only applies for PhoneGap version 1.x and below. From version 2.x onwards, whitelist configuration is done via cordova.xml. You have to add allowed URLs into PhoneGap.plist’s (or Cordova.plist) ExternalHosts array. For example, if you want to allow access to this URL http://www.myhost.com/path/file, then add www.myhost.com as a new entry to ExternalHosts array. … Read more

Using [UIColor colorWithRed:green:blue:alpha:] doesn’t work with UITableView seperatorColor?

You need to divide by 255.0 Because I hardly ever use values between 1.0 and 0.0, I created a very simple UIColor category that does the messy looking division by itself: (from http://github.com/Jon889/JPGeneral) //.h file @interface UIColor (JPExtras) + (UIColor *)colorWithR:(CGFloat)red G:(CGFloat)green B:(CGFloat)blue A:(CGFloat)alpha; @end //.m file @implementation UIColor (JPExtras) + (UIColor *)colorWithR:(CGFloat)red G:(CGFloat)green B:(CGFloat)blue … Read more

Correct way to load a Nib for a UIView subclass

MyViewClass *myViewObject = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@”MyViewClassNib” owner:self options:nil] objectAtIndex:0] I’m using this to initialise the reusable custom views I have. Note that you can use “firstObject” at the end there, it’s a little cleaner. “firstObject” is a handy method for NSArray and NSMutableArray. Here’s a typical example, of loading a xib to use as a … Read more

Moving a Stick figure, anchorpoints, animation, or something else…?
