enum in Swift of Type String


Many a times we would like to use enum to store text value's or may be even better to store fixed messages.

Like in below case ,  we are creating a enumeration called "StringMessages" and "raw Values" are defined to be of Type "String"



    enum StringMessages : String {
       case emptyText = "InputText is Empty"
       case nonEmptyText = "Input Text is not Empty"
   }



The only requirement here is the Raw Value should be unique.

Raw Values can be String , characters , integer or floating point number types.

Raw Values of this enum can be accessed using StringMessages.emptyText.rawValue or StringMessages.nonEmptyText.rawValue.

HitTest on iOS Use hitTest, to identify the view being tapped. The below method allows us to identify the view being selected. We can use it, to identify the view from which we would like to hide the touch events or identify the view we are interested into. Example: In the below case when we tap on Black View we can show an alert like "Black View tapped!" , if we tap on Red View , we can show an alert  "You are not allowed to tap on Red View" .  override func hitTest ( _ point: CGPoint , with event: UIEvent ?) -> UIView ? { } Here is a simple implementation of the method, to identify the view being hit. View hierarchy being used is listed below:- Blue(parent) - Red(child) - Green(child) - Yellow (child) - Orange (child) - Black (child) - White (child) So lets' start with override of hitTest method.      override func hitTest ( _ point: CGPoint , with event: UIEvent ?) -> UIView ? {         //1         if let viewAvailable = findPoin

CMTime  is structure which has two main components,  timeScale  and  value. CMTIME = VALUE  / TIMESCALE where, TimeScale =  fraction of a second each unit in numerator occupies. CMTIME = Value / TimeScale 1)  public   func  CMTimeMake( _  value:  Int64 ,  _  timescale:  Int32 ) ->  CMTime CMTimeMake ( 6000 ,  10 ) Means, there are 6000 units , each unit occupies 1/10 of a second 2)  public   func  CMTimeMakeWithSeconds( _  seconds:  Float64 ,  _  preferredTimescale:  Int32 ) ->  CMTime CMTimeMakeWithSeconds(10.0,500) 10.0 = VALUE /500 Therefore VALUE = 5000 So, there are 5000 units, each occupy 1/500 of a second

Dear Friends, As we know, that to set a custom Section Header in a TableView we need to call the following. Here we pass our own custom View. But, remember the view which we returned was never reusable, hence not memory efficient. -( UIView *) tableView:( UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:( NSInteger )section Later version of iOS , starting from iOS 6, helps to make our code Memory efficient with few lines of code. Still here the delegate method remains the same. With the help of this tutorial we will be able achieve a Custom Header implementation using iOS 6 or greater sdk. We will be creating a app. which would look like as shown below. Please use the following steps to achieve this: Step 1: Create a .xib file for the custom header 1. Press command + N 2.
