Since I have updated XCode (6.0, 6A313) and my iOS (8.0, 12A365) on the iPhone to gm seeds, the ABPeoplePickerNavigationController code doesn't work like before.
iOS 7.1.2: If someone want to import a contact, the address book opens and you see the full list of contacts, after picking one, it opens detail view of an contact and than you can add the contact with a click of the phone number you want to import.
iOS 8.0: its everything similar but if you click on number of an contact it dial the phone number instead of importing it..
Code:
#pragma mark - AddressBook Delegate Methods
-(BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person{
return YES;
}
-(BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person property:(ABPropertyID)property identifier:(ABMultiValueIdentifier)identifier{
// Get the first and the last name. Actually, copy their values using the person object and the appropriate
// properties into two string variables equivalently.
// Watch out the ABRecordCopyValue method below. Also, notice that we cast to NSString *.
NSString *firstName = (__bridge NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonFirstNameProperty);
NSString *lastName = (__bridge NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonLastNameProperty);
// Compose the full name.
NSString *fullName = @"";
// Before adding the first and the last name in the fullName string make sure that these values are filled in.
if (firstName != nil) {
fullName = [fullName stringByAppendingString:firstName];
}
if (lastName != nil) {
fullName = [fullName stringByAppendingString:@" "];
fullName = [fullName stringByAppendingString:lastName];
}
// Get the multivalue number property.
CFTypeRef multivalue = ABRecordCopyValue(person, property);
// Get the index of the selected number. Remember that the number multi-value property is being returned as an array.
CFIndex index = ABMultiValueGetIndexForIdentifier(multivalue, identifier);
// Copy the number value into a string.
NSString *number = (__bridge NSString *)ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(multivalue, index);
nameTextField.text = fullName;
numberTextField.text = number;
// Dismiss the contacts view controller.
[_addressBookController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
return NO;
}
// Implement this delegate method to make the Cancel button of the Address Book working.
-(void)peoplePickerNavigationControllerDidCancel:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker{
[_addressBookController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
couldn't find any answer in iOS developer library of apple. have somebody else a solution for it?
