Adding Annotations for coordinates MKMapView - objective-c

I am parsing this JSON file (correctly, it works with the UITextFields):
{"longitude":["37.786793","39.388528"],"latitude":["-122.395416","-78.887734"]}
ind creating MapViews, with the respective annotations in this way:
NSArray *allKeys2 = [DictionaryMap allKeys];
for (int h = 0; h < [allKeys2 count]; h++) {
CGRect mapFrame = CGRectMake( 400, e, 200, 110);
MKMapView *mapView2 = [[MKMapView alloc] initWithFrame:mapFrame];
[image1 addSubview:mapView2];
NSString *key2 = [allKeys2 objectAtIndex:i];
NSObject *obj2 = [DictionaryMap objectForKey:key2];
NSString *address = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", obj2];
float stringFloat = [address floatValue];
float stringFloat2 = [key2 floatValue];
CLLocationCoordinate2D anyLocation;
anyLocation.longitude = stringFloat;
anyLocation.latitude = stringFloat2;
MKPointAnnotation *annotationPoint2 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init]; annotationPoint2.coordinate = anyLocation;
annotationPoint2.title = #"Event";
annotationPoint2.subtitle = #"Microsoft's headquarters2";
[mapView2 addAnnotation:annotationPoint2];
[mapView2.userLocation setTitle:#"I am here"];
[mapView2.userLocation addObserver:self
forKeyPath:#"location"
options:(NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew|NSKeyValueObservingOptionOld)
context:NULL];
[mapView2 setShowsUserLocation:NO];
[MapViewArray addObject:mapView2];
if (MapViewArray == nil)MapViewArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
[MapViewArray addObject: mapView2];
}}
}while(g < f);
...I want the first map view to show the first coordinate pin, and the second to show the second pair of coordinates. But now, it is plotting on all the map views the same pin, corresponding to the last coordinates, and not to the first and second... respectively. This method works for the UITextField text, so I can't find the problem.
Please help!!
EDIT:
NSString *filenameMap = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#%#Map", destDir, NavBar.topItem.title];
NSString *MapPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#Map", NavBar.topItem.title]];
[self.restClient loadFile:filenameMap intoPath:MapPath];
NSString *fileContentMap = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:MapPath];
SBJsonParser *parserMap = [[SBJsonParser alloc] init];
NSDictionary *dataMap = (NSDictionary *) [parserMap objectWithString:fileContentMap error:nil];
NSArray *MaparrayLongitude = [dataMap objectForKey:#"longitude"];
NSArray *MaparrayLatitude = [dataMap objectForKey:#"latitude"];
NSDictionary* DictionaryMap = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjects:MaparrayLatitude forKeys:MaparrayLongitude];

Another take:
You probably don't want to map your latitudes to longitudes in DictionaryMap. How about making an NSArray of NSDictionaries, where each dictionary has a "latitude" key and a "longitude" key?
Also, you have "[MapViewArray addObject: mapView2]" twice in your code.
And what is "g"? Maybe add some logging to your loop so you can see what's being created?

How to create an NSarray with NSAttributedStrings but keeping the attributes within the array?

I want to store different strings with different attributes and store all of them in one array and then display the objects in one label but each object with its respective attribute.
Any suggestions?
EDIT: Solution derived from rmaddy's answer
NSDictionary *redAttrs = #{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor redColor]};
NSDictionary *greenAttrs = #{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor colorWithRed:0.118 green:0.506 blue:0.000 alpha:1.000]};
NSDictionary *orangeAttrs = #{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor orangeColor]};
NSString *stringUm = #"Brazil";
NSString *stringDois = #"USA";
NSString *stringTres = #"England";
NSMutableAttributedString *redString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:stringUm];
[redString setAttributes:redAttrs range:NSMakeRange(0,4)];
NSMutableAttributedString *greenString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:stringDois];
[greenString setAttributes:greenAttrs range:NSMakeRange(0,2)];
NSMutableAttributedString *orangeString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:stringTres];
[orangeString setAttributes:orangeAttrs range:NSMakeRange(0,4)];
NSArray *myStrings = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:redString, greenString, orangeString, nil];
NSLog(#"%#", [myStrings description]);
NSMutableAttributedString *result = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc]init];
NSAttributedString *delimiter = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString: #", "];
for (NSAttributedString *str in myStrings) {
if (result.length) {
[result appendAttributedString:delimiter];
}
[result appendAttributedString:str];
}
_lblUm.attributedText = result;
Your question is very unclear. But based on your comment to gerrytan's answer, your goal is clearer.
If you have an array of NSAttributedString objects, then you can create a single string by appending them all together with an NSMutableAttributedString.
NSArray *myStrings = ... // your array of NSAttributedString objects
NSMutableAttributedString *result = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] init];
// Put this delimiter between each string - change as desired
NSAttributedString *delimiter = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:#", "];
for (NSAttributeString *str in myStrings) {
if (result.length) {
[result appendAttributedString:delimiter];
}
[result appendAttributedString:str];
}
myLabel.attributedText = result;
UILabel only supports one NSAttributedString. I think what you can do is to place multiple UILabel side by side for each string on the array

Unable to add custom links to OHAttributeLabel

I am using OHAttributeLabel to add custom links to my label's text. The code that I am using is pasted below. It used to work with the older version of OHAttributed label (2010), however with the new version (recently updated), the text in my label are no longer clickable as links.
Can anyone advise what I am missing here?
// Set Question Label
Question *question = self._answerForCell.question;
NSString *questionText = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Q: %#", question.text];
CustomOHAttributLabel *thisQuestionLabel = (CustomOHAttributLabel *)[self.contentView viewWithTag:QUESTIONLABEL_TAG];
//Set up dictionary for question
NSString *questionStr = [question.text stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSString *urlForQn = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"dailythingsfm://redirect_to/questions/%#/answers?text=%#&nickname=%#&question_id=%#&question_curious=%i&showEveryOneTab=%i", question.slug, questionStr, [[UserInfo sharedUserInfo] getNickname], question.qid, question.curious, 1];
NSString *qnStartIndex = #"0";
NSString *qnLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%i", [questionText length]];
NSDictionary *qnDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:qnStartIndex, #"start", qnLength, #"length", urlForQn, #"url", nil];
NSArray *array = [NSArray arrayWithObject:qnDict];
[thisQuestionLabel setLabelwithText:questionText fontSize:QUESTION_FONT_SIZE andSubStringToURLArrayViaRange:array withHexColor:#"#555555"];
//Method to set the text in UILabel to a custom link
- (void)setLabelwithText:(NSString *)text fontSize:(CGFloat)fontSize andSubStringToURLArrayViaRange:(NSArray *)array withHexColor:(NSString *)textColor
{
NSMutableAttributedString *attrStr = [NSMutableAttributedString attributedStringWithString:text];
[attrStr setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:fontSize]];
[attrStr setTextColor:[UIColor grayColor]];
[self removeAllCustomLinks];
for (NSDictionary *dict in array) {
NSString *start = [dict objectForKey:#"start"];
NSString *length = [dict objectForKey:#"length"];
NSString *url = [dict objectForKey:#"url"];
NSUInteger startIndex = [start intValue];
NSUInteger len = [length intValue];
NSRange range = NSMakeRange(startIndex, len);
[attrStr setFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:fontSize] range:range];
[attrStr setTextColor:[UIColor colorWithHexString:textColor] range:range];
[self addCustomLink:[NSURL URLWithString:url] inRange:range];
}
self.attributedText = attrStr;
}
I have to use 'setLink' method instead of addCustomLink for the latest OHAttribute Library (3.2.1)

Annotations on MapView: Coordinates

I have two NSStrings (address, and key) which contain the coordinates (longitude and latitude) in form of numbers (34,56789...):
NSString *key = [allKeys objectAtIndex:i];
NSObject *obj = [DictionaryMap objectForKey:key];
NSString *address = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", obj];
CLLocationCoordinate2D anyLocation;
anyLocation.latitude = [address doubleValue];
anyLocation.longitude = [key doubleValue];
MKPointAnnotation *annotationPoint2 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init]; annotationPoint2.coordinate = anyLocation;
annotationPoint2.title = #"Event";
annotationPoint2.subtitle = #"Microsoft's headquarters2";
[mapView addAnnotation:annotationPoint2];
...But I can't understand why it doesn't plot in the same point as the coordinates written. I think this doesn't work:
[address doubleValue]
So I tried replacing it with:
location.latitude = NSNumber/NSString
but it gives an error.
UPDATE:
IN VIEW DID LOAD:
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPressGesture = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleLongPressGesture:)];
[self.mapView addGestureRecognizer:longPressGesture];
[mapView.userLocation setTitle:#"I am here"];
..then...
-(void)handleLongPressGesture:(UIGestureRecognizer*)sender {
// This is important if you only want to receive one tap and hold event
if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded)
{
[self.mapView removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
}
else
{
// Here we get the CGPoint for the touch and convert it to latitude and longitude coordinates to display on the map
CGPoint point = [sender locationInView:self.mapView];
CLLocationCoordinate2D locCoord = [self.mapView convertPoint:point toCoordinateFromView:self.mapView];
// Then all you have to do is create the annotation and add it to the map
MKPointAnnotation *annotationPoint = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init]; annotationPoint.coordinate = locCoord;
annotationPoint.title = #"Microsoft";
annotationPoint.subtitle = #"Microsoft's headquarters";
[mapView addAnnotation:annotationPoint];
NSString *latitude = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f",locCoord.latitude];
NSString *longitude = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", locCoord.longitude];
NSLog(latitude);
NSLog(longitude);
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]setObject:latitude forKey:#"FolderLatitude"];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]setObject:longitude forKey:#"FolderLongitude"];
}
}
...I then save the coordinates in a JSON file and then read them from the file.
Print out the values that you are setting for lat/lon. It sounds like these values are not being converted to double properly. If the strings are not in "xxx.xxx" format then they will not convert to doubles properly when you call doubleValue.
Finally I understood: This is the correct way to make it work:
NSString *myString = (string initialization here)
float stringFloat = [myString floatValue];
anyLocation.longitude = stringFloat;

JSON text and variable count

I am reading like this...
NSString *fileContent = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
SBJsonParser *parser = [[SBJsonParser alloc] init];
NSDictionary *data = (NSDictionary *) [parser objectWithString:fileContent error:nil];
// getting the data from inside of "menu"
NSString *message = (NSString *) [data objectForKey:#"message"];
NSString *name = (NSString *) [data objectForKey:#"name"];
NSArray *messagearray = [data objectForKey:#"message"];
NSArray *namearray = [data objectForKey:#"name"];
NSDictionary* Dictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjects:message forKeys:name];
for (NSString* Key in [Dictionary allKeys]){
NSLog(#"%# %#",Key,[Dictionary objectForKey:Key]);
}
...this JSON file...
{"message":["Untitled1a","Untitled2a","Untitled3a"],"name": ["Untitled1b","Untitled2b","Untitled3b"]}
...this is the result...
Untitled3b Untitled3a
2012-05-12 11:31:17.983 Quick Homework[721:f803] Untitled1b Untitled1a
2012-05-12 11:31:17.983 Quick Homework[721:f803] Untitled2b Untitled2a
...but for each pair (Untitled 1b 2b) I would like to alloc two UITextFields, witch display the correspondent text...
I tried using this method:
for (NSString *string in messagearray){
}do{
NSLog(#"happt = %i", b);
b++;
}
while(b == b);
//While loop
while (b == b ) {
NSLog(#"x = %i", b);
b++;
}
}
I would like to count the objects in the array in order to repeat an alloc code for UITextField that number of times, and display the text accordingly, but I am not able. Please help!!
Why can't you use -count?
b = [messagearray count]
To directly answer your question:
b = 0;
for (id item in messagearray)
b++;

How to prevent all rows of an NSTableView being selected at startup

I am new to Objective-C. I am using NSArrayController to fill NSTableView. Initially, I am getting all rows selected in the table view. I am unable to find the reason behind it.
for(int i=0;i<nCount;i++)
{
NSString *fileName_File = [[[filenames objectAtIndex:i] lastPathComponent] stringByDeletingPathExtension];
NSString *pathExtension = [[filenames objectAtIndex:i] pathExtension];
NSString *yourPath = [filenames objectAtIndex:i];
NSFileManager *fmgr = [[NSFileManager alloc] init];
NSDictionary *attrs = [fmgr attributesOfItemAtPath: yourPath error: nil];
[attrs retain];
UInt32 result = [attrs fileSize];
/*NSString * zStr1 = [[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%d",i+1];
NSString * zStr2 = [[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",fileName_File];
NSString * zStr3 = [[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",pathExtension];
NSString * zStr4 = [[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%d",result];
NSString * zStr5 = [[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",[filenames objectAtIndex:i]];*/
CMyMediaData * MyMediaObj = [[CMyMediaData alloc]initWithString1:[[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",#""]
andString2:[[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",fileName_File]
andString3:[[[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",pathExtension]uppercaseString]
andString4:[[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%d",result]
andString5:[[NSString alloc]initWithFormat:#"%#",[filenames objectAtIndex:i]]
];
[attrs release];
[mMedia.mcMediaController.mcTableViewMyMedia addObject:MyMediaObj];
//[mMedia.nsMutaryOfDataObject addObject:MyMediaObj];
} this is the code to add data to nsarraycontroller object.mcMediaController is object of NSArrayController
NSArrayController has a property selectsInsertedObjects. If that is YES, inserted objects are marked selected, including the ones added by addObject:.
You can set that property to NO, or you can use the following to unset the selection after adding the items:
mMedia.mcMediaController.mcTableViewMyMedia.selectedObjects = #[];
