I am working on MonoTouch binding of an Objective-C application. I referred iOS Binding Walkthrough.
I have generated libraries for i386, ARM and then a universal library. Further, I created a MonoTouch Binding Project. I have generated ApiDefinition using Sharpie and added the universal library generated earlier. Now when I build this project I am getting the following error.
ADClusterAnnotation.g.cs(86,86): Error CS0533: AnnotationClusterMap.ADClusterAnnotation.Coordinate' hides inherited abstract member MonoTouch.MapKit.MKAnnotation.Coordinate' (CS0533)
Here is the code snippet of ADClusterAnnotation:
File ADClusterannotation.h
#interface ADClusterAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation> {
CLLocationCoordinate2D _coordinates;
}
#property (nonatomic) CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
#end
File ADClusterAnnotation.m
#synthesize coordinate = _coordinates;
Here is the code snippet from ApiDefinition
[BaseType (typeof (MKAnnotation))]
public partial interface ADClusterAnnotation {
[Export ("coordinate")]
CLLocationCoordinate2D Coordinate { get; set; }
}
So I think we need to change something in ApiDefinition. I tried removing Coordinate from ADClusterAnnotation in the API definition, but then it gives an error that it implements an abstract member. What am I missing with regard to Monotouch binding?
Overriding an abstract member require c# new or override
You can get that to be generated by changing your ApiDefinition to:
[BaseType (typeof (MKAnnotation))]
public partial interface ADClusterAnnotation {
[Export ("coordinate")]
[New]
CLLocationCoordinate2D Coordinate { get; set; }
}

I'm needing to adjust some of the field attributes for the Location.VCashAccountID field on the Vendors screen - AP303000. When I put the code below into a customization DLL, it compiles fine and there are not apparent issues on the screen. However, when I try to publish the customization project with the DLL included, I get an error.
Code:
public class VendorMaintDefLocationExtExt : PXGraphExtension<VendorMaint.DefLocationExt,
VendorMaint>
{
public void _(Events.CacheAttached<PX.Objects.CR.Standalone.Location.vCashAccountID> e) { }
}
Error:
"Method Boolean DoValidateAddresses(PX.Objects.CR.Extensions.ValidateAddressesDelegate) in graph extension is marked as [PXOverride], but the original method with such name has not been found in PXGraph"
What am I missing?
TIA!
The following implementation will override the vCashAccount attribute on AP303000
public class AAVendorMaintDefLocationExtExtension : PXGraphExtension<DefLocationExt, DefContactAddressExt, VendorMaint>
{
[PXMergeAttributes(Method = MergeMethod.Merge)]
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "I am override")]
public void _(Events.CacheAttached<PX.Objects.CR.Standalone.Location.vCashAccountID> e) { }
}
You will also require the following references
using PX.Data;
using PX.Objects.AP;
using static PX.Objects.AP.VendorMaint;
The result can be seen in the snip below
The main difficulty in this task was the multitude of graph extensions utilized by the page. Though it's a beneficial design to encapsulate functionality it can be finnicky to determine which order they should be declared in a new extension.
You're graph extension extends VendorMaint.DefLocationExt which contains DoValidateAddresses. Try just extending VendorMaint.
I am using Xamarin.iOS. I have created UIView with a few UITextFields. I am looking for best way to initialize text value in these textfields from code.
I can pass text data in the constructor of UIViewContoller, but I don't have access to textFields inside it (they are null). I can change text value of textFields in viewDidLoad method.
I don't want to create additional fields in controller class to store data passed by constructor and use them in viewDidLoad. Do you know better solution ?

But that's how it's meant to be done.
Alternatively, you can create less fields/properties in your viewcontroller if you use a MVVM pattern:
public class UserViewModel {
public string Name { get; set;}
public string Title { get; set;}
}
public class UserViewController : UIViewController
{
UserViewModel viewModel;
public UserViewController (UserViewModel viewModel) : base (...)
{
this.viewModel = viewModel;
}
public override void ViewDidLoad ()
{
userName.Text = viewModel.Name;
userTitle.Text = viewModel.Title;
}
}
That's the kind of pattern which gives you a lot of code reuse accross platforms (android, WP, ...) and clearly separate concerns. It's a (very) little bit of extra code, but it's worth every byte.
When accessing to outlets from my CustomClass : UICollectionViewCell, they are appearing as not initialized and can not set a proper value.
Every example I've seen it uses a plain Class (no XIB) to set the UI.
[Register("CustomCommentCell")]
public partial class CustomCommentCell : UICollectionViewCell
{
public static readonly NSString Identifier = new NSString("CustomCommentCell");
public CustomCommentCell () : base()
{
}
public CustomCommentCell (IntPtr handle) : base (handle)
{
}
public void updateData()
{
this.lblComment.Text = "Test";
}
}
On the other hand, I have registered the Class:
this.tableComments.RegisterClassForCell (typeof(CustomCommentCell),commentCellId);
and have the GetCell properly set.
However, when trying to set the outlets to a specific value, it indicates it is null. (this.lblcomment = null) while it should have been a UILabel initialized.
Any clues?
to create the Custom CollectionViewCell using XIB. do the following
1) create C# class which inherits from UIcollectionViewCell
[Register("MyCustomCell")]
public class MyCustomCell : UICollectionViewCell
{
public static readonly NSString Key = new NSString ("MyCustomCell");
[Export ("initWithFrame:")]
public MyCustomCell(CoreGraphics.CGRect frame) : base (frame)
{
}
public override UIView ContentView {
get {
var arr= NSBundle.MainBundle.LoadNib ("MyCustomCell", this, null);
UIView view =arr.GetItem<UIView> (0);
view.Frame = base.ContentView.Frame;
base.ContentView.AddSubview (view);
return base.ContentView;
}
}
}
2) Add a IphoneView XIB file has the Same Name as that of Class created in step 1
3) Open XIB in XCODE and do the Following Changes
3.1)Select the FileOwner set the Class same name as Step 1
3.2)Select The View Set the Class name UIView
4) Design Your XIB Accordingly
I can't follow quite the problem you are seeing. What is a "Custom XIB outlet"? Why is this question tagged "custom-controls"? Is there some example code or pictures you can show to help explain the problem?
The approach I use for UICollectionViewCell's is the same as I use for UITableViewCell - see the tutorial - http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/uitableviewcell-using-xib-editor.html
Update: From the code you've posted as a comment (not sure if it's complete or not), I think it would be useful for you to follow through that tutorial. There are a few steps to complete including registering the custom class name and including using RegisterNibForCellReuse - one of those will probably fix this for you.
I have an app (written using MonoTouch and currently working) that I want to add landscape orientation to. I am using a UITabBarController.
I don't see how to create a controller that will allow me to override the "ShouldAutorotate..." method. Can anybody point me to an example using a UITabBarController in MonoTouch?
TweetStation contains a sample precisely for this setup, and propagates the rotation down all of the nested view controllers.
Are you subclassing UITabBarController?
You are probably non subclassing and just adding a vanilla controller in Interface Builder. You have to subclass to override that property.
First make a new class like this:
//Test this, it's off the top of my head
[Register("YourTabController")]
public class YourTabController : UITabBarController
{
public YourTabController (IntPtr handle) : base (handle) { }
[Export("initWithCoder:")]
public YourTabController (NSCoder coder) : base (coder) { }
//Override should rotate
public bool ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation(UIInterfaceOrientation o)
{ return true; }
}
Then, if you already have a UITabBarController in IB, there is a 'Class' property that you set to the name of your new class.
I'm writting my first iPhone app using mono touch. I have only written a little bit of code, and suddenly, it does not compile anymore, I get this error:
/MyRoute/MainWindow.xib.designer.cs(85,85): Error CS1061: Type xxxx.AppDelegate' does not contain a definition forGetNativeField' and no extension method GetNativeField' of typexxx.AppDelegate' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) (CS1061) (xxx)
Any idea where this error comes from and how to solve it?
Thanks! :-D
Edited: Added aditional information:
THIS IS THE MAINWINDOW DESIGNER CODE:
namespace GuiaTeleIphone {
// Base type probably should be MonoTouch.Foundation.NSObject or subclass
[MonoTouch.Foundation.Register("AppDelegate")]
public partial class AppDelegate {
private MonoTouch.UIKit.UIWindow __mt_window;
#pragma warning disable 0169
[MonoTouch.Foundation.Connect("window")]
private MonoTouch.UIKit.UIWindow window {
get {
this.__mt_window = ((MonoTouch.UIKit.UIWindow)(this.GetNativeField("window")));
return this.__mt_window;
}
set {
this.__mt_window = value;
this.SetNativeField("window", value);
}
}
}
}
THIS IS THE MAIN.CS:
namespace GuiaTeleIphone
{
public class Application
{
static void Main (string[] args)
{
UIApplication.Main (args);
}
}
// The name AppDelegate is referenced in the MainWindow.xib file.
public partial class AppDelegate : UIApplicationDelegate
{
List<RSSChannel> RemoteChannelsData;
// This method is invoked when the application has loaded its UI and its ready to run
public override bool FinishedLaunching (UIApplication app, NSDictionary options)
{
// If you have defined a view, add it here:
// window.AddSubview (navigationController.View);
window.MakeKeyAndVisible ();
// do things here
return true;
}
}
}
The other partial class of xxxx.AppDelegate is missing or in a different namespace. It specifies the base class.
