INFO

Beginning iPhone 4 Development is a complete course in iOS development. You�ll master techniques that work on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. We start with the basics, showing you how to download and install the tools you�ll need, and how to create your first simple application. Next you�ll learn to integrate all the interface elements iOS users have come to know and love, such as buttons, switches, pickers, toolbars, and sliders. You�ll master a variety of design patterns, from the simplest single view to complex hierarchical drill-downs. The confusing art of table building will be demystified, and you�ll learn techniques to save and retrieve your data using SQLite, iPhone�s built-in database management system and Core Data, the standard for persistence that Apple brought to iOS with the release of SDK 3.

And there�s much more! You�ll learn to draw using Quartz 2D and OpenGL ES, add multitouch gestural support (pinches and swipes) to your applications, and work with the camera, photo library, accelerometer, and built-in GPS. You�ll discover the fine points of application preferences and learn how to localize your apps for multiple languages. You�ll also learn how to use the new concurrency APIs included in iOS 4, and make robust multithreaded applications using Grand Central Dispatch.
