I am working on a iOS application in which I have to share some data between two applications and I am using UIPastboard
and data is sharing successfully in iOS below 7.0 but not working in iOS 7. Here is the code I am using:
// Code for writing .... Used in application "A"
NSString * name = @"peter";
NSNumber *age = [NSNumber numberWithInteger:[@"33" integerValue]];
NSMutableDictionary * dict =[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
[dict setObject:name forKey:@"name"];
[dict setObject:age forKey:@"age"];
UIPasteboard * pb = [UIPasteboard pasteboardWithName:@"mypasteboard" create:YES];
[pb setPersistent:YES];
[pb setData:[NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:dict] forPasteboardType:@"mydata"];
//Code for reading..... Used in application "B"
UIPasteboard * pb=[UIPasteboard pasteboardWithName:@"mypasteboard" create:NO];
NSData * data=[[NSData alloc] init];
data=[pb valueForPasteboardType:@"mydata"];
NSDictionary * dict;
if (!data) {
return nil;
}
@try {
dict = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:data];
}
@catch (NSException* exception)
{
NSLog(@"Exception: %@",exception);
return nil;
}
if(dict) //In iOS 7 dict contains 'nil' but not in iOS 6.
{
NSString * name = [dict objectForKey:@"name"];
NSNumber * age = [dict objectForKey:@"age"];
message =[NSString stringWithFormat:@"name =%@,\nage=%@",name,age];
}
else
{
message =@"No data from Pasteboard";
}
UIAlertView *alertView2 = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Pasteboard Data"
message:message
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok"
otherButtonTitles:Nil, nil];
alertView2.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStyleDefault;
[alertView2 show];
In iOS 7 dict contains 'nil' but in iOS 6 contains data which is set in application 'A'.
Please suggest me any solution for this issue.
