I have the following code. However, the line
stepper.value = [NSNumber numberWithDouble:loadNumber];
errors with the error 'Sending NSNumber *__strong
to a parameter of incompatible type 'double''. I think the stepper will only accept a double, but am unsure what I am doing wrong to set it.
What I need to achieve is the following:-
1) Have a default value set in NSUserDefaults
for saveNumber
, which will be used until a variation is made by the user.
2) on load or view appearing, use saveNumber
to set the value of both stepper.value
and myLabel
.
3) ensure that when changed with the stepper, the value is updated in myLabel
, and NSUserDefaults
saveNumber
is also updated.
Can anyone advise where I am going wrong, and help correct my code please?
Further,I just realised that in the final app, I will have this setting on a different viewController to the one that will use the NSUserDefaults
savedNumber value. With this in mind, can you also let me know how to ensure that savedNumber is available not only to this viewController, but any other one I require the values on?
Many thanks.
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSNumber *loadNumber = [defaults objectForKey:@"saveNumber"];
self.myLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",loadNumber];
UIStepper *stepper = [[UIStepper alloc] init];
stepper.value = [NSNumber numberWithDouble:loadNumber];
}
- (IBAction)stepChanged:(id)sender {
NSNumber *saveNumber = [NSNumber numberWithDouble:[(UIStepper *)sender value]];
NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
[defaults setObject:saveNumber forKey:@"saveNumber"];
[defaults synchronize];
self.myLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",saveNumber];
}
I have one outstanding issue which is that I cannot get the defaults to deliver if no value has been set!
I have the following code in AppDelegate.m:-
NSDictionary *defaults = @{ @"saveNumber": @8 };
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] registerDefaults:defaults];
When the App first launches (and every time after until the stepper has been used) the value being seen is 'null'.
Any ideas?
