Ray's er' Sharp


Just a quick post in this wasteland of a blog about a chap who seems to make be on a mission to enlighten all beginners in Objective-C and Xcode. I must admit Ray Wenderlich's tutorial on CoreData cemented my knowledge of databasing on Apple devices. If you are new to the whole Apple / iPhone / Obj-c world and need some inspiration this is your best chance. Visit his blog.

No big deal you may think. But a lot of my clients have clients that denote the minimum target iOS version to build for. This can cause problems and to compound things some directives specify iOS versions that are a) No longer supported by Apple, b) Have no device (both simulator nor handset) to test on. They are now starting to ask about updating their apps for the iPhone 5 resolution. It's hard to tell them that because of their target iOS, this can only be achieved by developing blindly relying on provisioning for device testing and the associated increase in development (known as cost) or increasing the ...
