  1. Thanks #iceamsterdam attendees of my #XCode debugging and customization sessions - and I hope everyone enjoyed my brief panel appearance.
  2. #gdb trick for changing #ObjectiveC strings: po variable = [NSString stringWithString:@"My New String"] . Step once to see change in #XCode
  3. Just a few more days until ICEAmsterdam! I've enhanced my #XCode talks/lab to have a even more interesting tidbits...
  4. Twitter seems to throw a few dots at the end of that URL, it's tinyURL.com/dateFormatter (easy to remember)
  5. Tired of reading #XCode docs for a complex NSDateFormatter dateFormat string? A shortcut URL is now: http://tinyurl.com/dateForm...
  6. Thanks everyone at Boulder #Cocoaheads - hope you enjoyed the talk!
  7. Finally figured out approach to work around GDB inability to change string values in #XCode. Will write up details later for #ICEAmsterdam.
  8. navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack is good. navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor] is bad (nav buttons will not press).
  9. Confused about Selected vs. Highlighted in the #iPhoneSDK ? Selected is permanent state, Highlighted is your finger brushing against it.
  10. Excited to be speaking at the iPhone Challenge Amsterdam conference at the end of November: http://www.iceamsterdam.com/
  11. In #InterfaceBuilder, "ctrl-s" now shows you all strings you have set in whatever you have open (label default text, accessibility, etc.)
  12. If you have a .* provisioning profile (no company prefix), don't - #XCode matches that before more specific profiles like com.mycompany.* .
  13. #MobileOrchard has a podcast up interviewing me on the #XCode debugging tools, and two other developers as well... http://bit.ly/3phH1X
  14. Surprise of the week - with #SnowLeopard, #iDisk is actually usable for file transfers! Uploads no longer take an eternity.
  15. All those used to the old #XCode are probably used to IB saving automatically when you build. Not in Snow Leopard, so always save IB files!
  16. @nimbusblue - I totally understand, warming up a post myself!
  17. #XCode navigation tip - the new back/forward goes between file positions, to go between files press "option" while you press the arrows.
  18. @dcgrigsby The walking desk looked pretty interesting, it seems like it would be hard to type though... what speed do you set it to?
  19. And related to cornerRadius, you need to have clipsToBounds on to have it take effect...
  20. If you want to access the cornerRadius property of a #UIView's layer, don't forget you have to import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>!
