Uninstalling iphone sdk

I tried using the Terminal command line ($ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all) listed in the About file that was contained in the disk image for the installer. All that happened was it said directory does not exist or something to that effect.
I want to completely and properly remove the SDK from my system as if it was never there. Any suggestions? Thanks.

To remove Xcode, simply run the line shown in the above message:
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
# NAME
# uninstall-devtools -- Meta-script for running the various devtools uninstaller scripts.
# SYNOPSIS
# sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
# sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=xcodedir
# sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=unixdev
# sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=systemsupport
To remove the Developer folder:
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-developer-folder --mode=all

IPhone SDK Simulator - How to uninstall application developed

Hi,
I downloaded the HelloWorld sample for iPhone SDK. Compiled and was able to run the application.
How can I remove the just compiled app from the simulator? I even tried uninstalling the iPhone SDK and upon reinstalling it, I still see the icon in the simulator and able to run the HelloWorld app.
Thanks.

Click and hold the application icon on the home screen. As soon as the "x" appears, click the "x". Then click the home button.

IPhone SDK 2.2 memory corruption

Hello. I'm working on an application for iPhone SDK 2.2 and seem to be having weird memory corruption problems. Not necessarily leaks because using Instruments shows my memory stamp never going above about 1.8 megs. The nature of the app is a database of animals so I'm constantly loading and unloading sounds and images. None of the objects are very large (at most I'll have 4 800k pngs loaded at once) and I've checked and rechecked my alloc/retain/release and everything is in order (hence no memory usage increase). However...after using the application for a while I'll notice strange behavior. For example:
1) we have a UILabel as the title for each page. After a while the font size of this will change.
2) I have several screens with a subclassed UIScrollView where images are loaded and then added to. The problem shows itself here by the images not showing up. there's no crash, stepping through the debugger shows that the image loads up fine, it's just that the image is not there.
3) I have a UILabel at the top of an animal description screen, which in the nib file is called "Animal Name" by default. This will change to show "Animal Name" at the top.
I've removed all audio in our latest build so that isn't the problem. What I'm starting to suspect is that altering anything defined in a nib file will cause corruption. For example, the UIScrollView is defined in the nib file, and I constantly am reassigning the contents of that with a UIImageView. This UIImageView is handled within the subview class like :
UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage: [ UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle ] pathForResource:imageToLoad ofType:@"png" ]] ];
imgView.tag = 50;
[self addSubview:imgView ];
[ imgView release ];
Then later when moving away from the screen I'll find that view's tag and remove it from the superview (since addSubView increases the retain count, the alloc+addSubView is cancelled by release+removeFromSuperView)
I can't explain why titles that are never changed would be affected, but it must somehow be related. What I'm wondering is: are there any known issues involving modification of the contents of objects defined in Nib files? Perhaps the memory allocated when initWithNibName is restrained, then any modification of objects allocated within it can cause corruption. I'm starting to think I should just alloc and free anything modified in code and skip using nib files altogether (I reset the text on buttons for example). If this is a known issue please let me know. I'll give you more information if I can.
Thank you

Just download the huge SDK package and install. No need to uninstall the old SDK.

IPhone SDK b3: How I fixed broken (blank) Research Assistant

Hello, I wanted to give this thread a new title as the original thread didn't indicate "iPhone SDK" in the title, and was in reference specifically to b2. The original thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6935634#6935634
Here are my findings. Research Assistant was working great for me until I upgraded my original (b1) iPhone SDK directly to b3, skipping b2 entirely. In reading posts in the aforementioned thread, this problem seems to occur when going from b1 -> b2, and I can surmise probably also from b1 -> b2 -> b3.
The comments in the aforementioned thread were useful in helping me reach a fixed state, for which I conclude a clean re-installation of b3 was necessary. Just doing steps 3) through 6), inclusive, _did not fix my problem._
1) Uninstall iPhone b3 SDK
sudo /developer/Libraray/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
2) Reboot. Reinstall iPhone b3 SDK. Reboot.
3) Launch Xcode. "Go to Xcode : Preferences... : Documentation"
4) Click + to add the following entries (you might already see a bunch of grayed-out entires):
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Documentation/DocSets
/Developer/Documentation/DocSets
/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets
5) Exit and relaunch Xcode
6) Go to "Project : Edit Project Settings" and click on "Rebuild Code Sense Index".
After doing all of this, my Research Assistant now works. I wanted to share this with the community in hopes that others learning the iPhone SDK aren't dissuaded by this issue, which can cause a very substantial barrier to learning its APIs quickly.
-Jeff Ishaq

Thanks for all the tips. Unfortunately for me it still doesn't work
After trying for a day I give up ... bulky docs pane here I come.
Might be because I am using standard Xcode Dev Tools and not the iPhone SDK version of it, but I am still hoping Apple will release a fix for this annoying bug.

IPhone SDK 3.1: Problem compiling first Hello World App

Hi,
I am new to XCode, Mac OS and iPhone Development.
I had already installed the earlier iPhone SDK (version prior to the latest 3.1) into my Mac OS 10.6. I was not able to run
the hello world program through xCode as while opting for Build and Run, the simulator it was giving me an error saying that it cannot find the right SDK.
I had assumed that the old SDK is not compatible with the new Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard). I had then uninstalled the old
iPhone SDK using Terminal tool, using the command line given in the xCode uninstall guide.
Installed the latest iPhone SDK (version 3.1), and then tried to compile the hello world app through xCode. Now I am getting the following error:
*error: can't exec '/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.2' (No such file or directory*)
I had located the above mentioned directory and could not find the file: "gcc-4.2" as mentioned in the error. Instead
executable files like "i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1" are present there.
My Project Settings are:
Project Format - xcode 3.2 -compatible
Base SDK - iPhone Simulator 3.1
Compiler Version - System Default (GCC 4.2)
I am totally confused here, as I don't know how to correctly set up the ENV, as I thought the iPhone installer SDK does that automatically.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance for your time,
JC.

Could you let me know as where is the xcode setting through which it is looking for the compiler in the following path ? This path is probably wrong (Pls refer to the error messages)
I'm not sure this will be of any help to you -- I'm not sure if it's the answer you're looking for, since I don't really know enough on the subject. However, this may answer your question, or at least maybe help you find the answer for yourself, so it's worth a shot. Try going to Edit Project Settings in the Project menu, and once the Project Settings open, select the Build tab. Search through this and see if you find any preferences along the lines of what you are looking for. In particular I would try the sections toward the bottom about the GCC 4.0 compiler. Sorry if this was a waste of time, but I wanted to try...

IPhone SDK Uninsallation

Hey everyone.
I've been trying to uninstall the iPhone SDK from my system using the directions in the PDF file that comes with the SDK. When I go into Terminal, I type in:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
When I type in this (or if I directly copy/paste), the following error appears:
-bash: Xcode: No such file or directory
Any ideas? I'm not so good with the Terminal side of OS X, so I'm coming to you guys.

I was having the same problem. Thanks for the helpful answer. Here's another couple of questions. It has now removed everything, but the "developer" directory remains. Is this directory part of the Mac OS system default install or was it created by the iphone SDK? Can it be removed? it still has a bunch of files in it.

IPhone SDK 2.1 to 3.0

Hi,
I downloaded iPhone SDK 2.1 on my Mac a couple of months ago and since 3.0 is out now, how do I go about updating the software to 3.0? Do I completely uninstall 2.1 and do a clean install or is there an option for me to update...I'm assuming within Xcode? sorry, i'm completely new at this.

Just download the huge SDK package and install. No need to uninstall the old SDK.

IPhone SDK 2.0 - xcode fails to build new project

I downloaded and installed the latest iPhone 2.0 SDK. I did not uninstall any previous tools (xcode/SDK). I assume the 2.0 SDK installation will perform the upgrade in a proper fashion (not requiring one to uninstall the previous SDK/xcode). I start up xcode. I check the version via the about menu. It states that the version of xcode is 'Version 3.1 (Beta)'. The project settings indicate that the Base SDK is Device - iPhone OS 2.0. I checked my system to ensure that my current filesystem has the correct SDK. It has the Macintosh HD->iPhoneOS.pltaform->Developer->SDK's->iPhoneOS2.0.sdk.
OK, everything seems good up to this point. I create a new xcode application for the iPhone. I then go to compile the application and I get the following error:
/Developer/iPhone Examples/Foo/Classes/FooAppDelegate.h:16: error: syntax error before 'UIToolbarController'
Source code line : UIToolbarController *toolbarController;
Yes I realize that the UIToolbarController API has been removed for SDK 2.0. However, how can one use xcode to build a starter application if it is generating code that references outdated API's???
Am I doing something wrong? I have searched all the forums but have not come across this issue. Hence, I think something is wrong with my setup/install. If the solution is not to use UIToolbarController API, then why does the xcode still use it to build starter code projects? Also, if we can't use the API, what is it's replacement?
thanks

It created more errors, as there are a whole lot of other API's
that have changed (UIViewController now doesn't resolve
some of it's members, e.g. toolbarItem).
Err... hello? Someone just told you what the names have changed to!
Wow. I have about 1 months worth of work, that I am going to
have to seriously think about throwing away because of all of
these growing pains.
Can't talk about the iPhone SDK specifically, but Xcode in general has great refactoring tools that will make the name changes, in all locations, in a split second for you. No, lets not get hysterical. It's not one month's work at all. It's not even five seconds work.
I think the newer 2.0 release is causing more problems than solutions.
That's the whole point. It's not a release. It's a beta. That's what happens with beta's. That's why you sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement), stating that under no conditions will you discuss the SDK with anyone, and that you agree that things may change without prior notice or even break down completely.
Basically shutting down all of my development efforts.
Errrr.... hello again?

IPhone SDK - What is the equivalent of a combo box

I have a screen where there are quite a few items which are of the multiple-choice type. In other platforms i use a combo box (pick lists) to do this.
On the iPhone SDK the only thing that comes close is the UIPicketView which is ugly IMHO. it takes too much real estate and too heavy.
Is this is the only control available now?
Also does the UIPicker come with an associated control which will launch the picker? What i mean is on other platforms and on the web there is a text field with a button with a down arrow next to it. Clicking either on the text field or the down arrow drops the list down. Is there a similar control on the iPhone which when clicked launches the picker OR do i have to create a button or a custom view which will launch the picker?
Thanks for reading this and for your feedback.
-TRS

I do not believe there is an equivalent of -D in the DB JVM, a possible solution is:
Load a properties file into the DB using Loadjava, then open this file from your Java code using Properties.load(), then iterate the properties calling System.setProperty().

Learning iPhone SDK - Trying to draw an image

Although I have programmed for Mac in the last years, I have never used Mac-specific technologies as Cocoa (I have programmed more in OpenGL, SDL, and the like).
Now I am getting started with the iPhone SDK. I'd like to do some OpenGL|ES stuff, but since it is not supported in the Simulator, and you need to join the Developer Program to test stuff on directly on the device (and admission of new members is closed right now), I am focused on other stuff right now, like using Core Graphics for drawing images on the iPhone.
My application is based on the Cocoa Touch Application template. I left the default code except for a few changes.
In file "UntitledAppDelegate.m", I have changed the method applicationDidFinishLaunching to:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
window = [[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]] autorelease];
contentView = [[[MyView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]] autorelease];
[window addSubview:contentView];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
Then, in the MyView interface file (MyView.h), I have added the attribute "UIImageView* image;" to the class, which is declared as a property, and synthesized.
In the class implementation (MyView.m), I have changed the method initWithFrame to:
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame {
if (self = [super initWithFrame:frame]) {
self.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
image = [self loadImageView:@"box01.png"];
[self addSubview:image];
return self;
loadImageView is a private method I have implemented as:
- (UIImageView *)loadImageView:(NSString *) imageName {
UIImage *img = [UIImage imageNamed:imageName];
UIImageView *theView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:img];
return theView;
Since I have loaded the UIImage, and initialized a UIImageView with it, and the image view is added as a subview of the main view attached to the window, I thought it should be everything needed to draw an image on the screen. But nothing is visible. The screen is simply black when I run this on the Simulator. It doesn't even set the background to dark gray.
So I need some help with this, I sure that anyone with experience in Mac programming will know how to help me.
Thank you in advance.
Message was edited by: Jedive

I removed the XIB file from the project, but that didn't help. It was a problem with my inexperience with Objective-C. When accessing class properties in a method of the same class, i was not putting "self." before the property (in C++ that's redundant). For example, in the line "window = [[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]] autorelease];". After adding it, it works correctly.

IPhone SDK CodeSign Error: Redux (latest OS X update is broken)

This bug - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1455699&start=0&tstart=0 - is back. My AdHoc project, which worked perfectly last week, has just stopped building, with this:
"object file format invalid or unsuitable"
As soon as I upgraded from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8, this bug appeared.
However, this bug was officially fixed in 10.5.7 - so, I'm guessing here, Apple has accidentally re-created it.
Unfortunately, I cannot add to the original post, because Apple has frozen the topic.
So, here's a new topic to ask if anyone else is having this problem, and what they did about it - is it exactly the same as the old bug? or is it different in some way?
I'm going to try some of the workarounds for the old bug - but hacking command line scripts isn't fun, and I'm worried I might break something even worse .

Problem in set selectedTextcolor in uitableview cell in iPhone SDK 3.1.2

Hello,
I set selected text color in uitableview cell using cell.selectedTextColor = [UIColor whiteColor]; for iPhone SDK 2.2.1.
Now i use iPhone SDK 3.1.2, So for that i make change as per documentation for that i use textLabel properties. But selectedTextColor is not exit.
So Now for SDK 3.1.2 how to set selectedTextColor?..
Thank you.

The textLabel property is an instance of UILabel, so it has its own textColor, textAlignment, and font properties. E.g.:
cell.textLabel.text = @"foo";
cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
Hope that helps!

IPhone SDK : Communication between iPhone client and a remote server

Hi,
This is w.r.t iPhone Cocoa Touch native application.
i need to populate my application 's data from a remote application server ( which in turn connects to the database) . I require some tips in the communication between client sitting on the iPhone and the remote application server. I am planning to proceed in XML transaction way.
I referred the SeismicXML sample application provided by Apple. In this sample,client reads the physically existing xml file from @"http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/catalogs/eqs7day-M2.5.xml"; and the client parses the xml file and display the content on the table view.
i have following 2 queries ,
1. I do not want to read from a physically present file,i want the data to be transferred on the go.
Means, request should be sent from the client to a application server and the server process returns the data in form of xml file ( but its not creating any physical xml file) .
Basically i am looking for request - response concept.
2. Can we call a java process(which returns xml data) running on a remote server from the cocoa touch client.? If not java process,what would be other best way...
i am going through the Apple provided frameworks. Do any of the iPhone SDK frameworks support this request? If some one has any idea on the above mentioned queries, pls help me.
any pointers will also be helpful.
It might be too early to talk about these,but i have to take some business decision related on this.
thanks in advance.

You already know how to send a string via HTTP Post? And you know how to make XML into a string? Put the two together.

Running iPhone SDK & Leopard on G4 1.42 emac?

Looking for a cheap entry point to get into developing apps for iphone. I can get the 1.42ghz G4 emac for $200 or G5 PPC 2.0ghz for $775.
I've read that the G4 will run leopard, but havent found anyone running leopard and iphone sdx on the G4. I'd like to try things out first on the G4, but is it going to be so unbearably slow that I'm going to regret taking the cheap way out? Thanks.

Further research has led me believe now that iPhone SDK will only run on Intel based machines. If that is indeed the case, neither machine will work for me.
