Day of the Day
Video Job Pitch
Here’s a short video where I am trying to make a point of why you might like to be working in Vienna, Austria. My company Drobnik KG is looking for a Junior developer to join the team. And video is what young people respond to best these days, don’t they?
DTBonjour 1.1.2
DTBonjour simplifies the communication between client and server over Bonjour by allowing you to send any object which conforms to NSCoding. This update adds a new delegate method to inform about client disconnects. The rest is house-keeping.
Kvitto 1.0.1
Kvitto is my first Swift component. I built it to decode universal app store receipts for the purpose of purchase validation and determining subscription durations.
Somehow the podspec for Kvitto had gotten lost. So I needed to reconstruct it from the JSON version which I found in the Cocoapods specs repo. Also there was some cleanup work and experiments trying to get unit testing and code coverage for Swift working. So this is purely a housekeeping release.
DTKeychain 1.0.2
This update to DTKeychain adds the ability to use it as a dynamic framework. This nifty little component is what we use for all things required to store account information.
DTCoreText 1.6.17
This update to DTCoreText aggregates and release half a year worth of fixes. The previous update was in July 2015.
DTFoundation 1.7.9
I’m doing this year-end update for DTFoundation to not have any unreleased contributions.
GeoCorder saves the day
Sometimes I hear from users of my apps and the ones I like to hear from the most are the happy ones. Here is one case of a happy customer that relates to my app for recording map paths: GeoCorder
Swift Golf
For a project I needed a way to get a reference to a UISwitch contained in the contentView of a UITableViewCell. I remembered from my research for my Swift talk that there was this handy is operator, so I was excited to tweet that I had finally found the first good use for it.
Growth Spurt
In January 2016 the Cocoanetics blog as well as my iOS development business will exist 7 years. The business entity behind it – Drobnik KG – existed for twice as long. At the end of 2015 there will be several fundamental changes.
