I am new in iPhone application development. Now i am developing alarm application for iPhone. In this application i am selected data from UIDataPicker. Then i applied to NSLocalNotification firedate with in alarm button action. It is working first time. Then second time agin click that button i again also working, but time also same. It is wrongly working.
Here i think i need to us NSTimer. I don't know how to use NSTimer, and also it is working background application also how to set this timer.
following developed code for alarm notification.
- (void) saveButtonAction:(id)sender { [[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications]; Class cls = NSClassFromString(@"UILocalNotification"); if (cls != nil) { Resource *resourceLoader = [[Resource alloc] init]; NSDictionary *prefDic = [resourceLoader getPlistDataAsDictionary:@"preference"]; NSString *musicName; NSDate *selectedDateTime = [[NSDate alloc]init]; if (prefDic && [prefDic objectForKey:@"alarmtime"]) { //firstVal_textField.text = [prefDic objectForKey:@"value1"]; NSLog(@"saravanan %@",[prefDic objectForKey:@"alarmtime"]); selectedDateTime = [prefDic objectForKey:@"alarmtime"]; NSLog(@"saravanan periyasamy %@", selectedDateTime); musicName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@",[prefDic objectForKey:@"alarmmusic"],@".wav" ]; } UILocalNotification *notif = [[cls alloc] init]; //notif.fireDate = [datePicker date]; notif.fireDate = selectedDateTime; notif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]; notif.alertBody = @"Alarm"; notif.alertAction = @"Show me"; //notif.repeatInterval = 0; //notif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName; notif.soundName = musicName; notif.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1; NSDictionary *userDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:@"saravanan" forKey:kRemindMeNotificationDataKey]; notif.userInfo = userDict; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notif]; [notif release];}}}
