nsurlsession

I'd been using RestKit for the last two years, but recently I've started thinking about transition from these monolith framework as it seems to be really overkill. Here's my pros for moving forward: There is big need in using NSURLSession for background fetches and RestKit has only experimental branch for transition to AFNetworking 2.0. No actual dates when transition will be finished. (Main Reason) No need for CoreData support in network library as no need for fully functional offline data storage. Having headache with new concept of response/request descriptors as they don't support

I have implemented a NSURLSession that runs in the background (so it can continue the task using the system deamon even when the app is suspended). The issue is that -(void)URLSession:(NSURLSession *)session dataTask:(NSURLSessionDataTask *)dataTask didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response completionHandler:(void (^)(NSURLSessionResponseDisposition))completionHandler is never called. I need to know the response status so I can handle properly the upload failure. According to another post, an Apple engineer told that this delegate method is not called when the session is backgroundSession

I am using NSURLSessionDownloadTask with background sessions to achieve all my REST requests. This way I can use the same code without have to think about my application being in background or in foreground. My back-end has been dead for a while, and I have taken that opportunity to test how does NSURLSession behave with timeouts. To my utter surprise, none of my NSURLSessionTaskDelegate callbacks ever gets called. Whatever timeout I set on the NSURLRequest or on the NSURLSessionConfiguration , I never get any callback from iOS telling me that the request did finish with timeout. That is, when

Hi I am developing one Iphone application In which I want to set cookies after server response and use that for another request. My network request looks like. NSURLSession *session = [NSURLSession sharedSession]; [[session dataTaskWithURL:url completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) { NSHTTPURLResponse *httpResp = (NSHTTPURLResponse*) response; NSLog(@"sttaus code %i", httpResp.statusCode); if (error) { [self.delegate signinWithError:error]; } else { [self.delegate signinWithJson:data]; } }] resume]; But I don't know how to set cookies. I know I have to use

I'm using the new NSURLSession API and allowing the user to download files. I'd like to try and tell my NSURLSession how many simultaneous downloads to run, but I don't see a way to do it. I'd like to try to avoid managing the download tasks myself, would be much better if I could tell the system how many to allow instead - that would be better for queuing background downloads as well when my app isn't running. Is there a way to do this? You can set it in the NSURLSessionConfiguration object with the HTTPMaximumConnectionsPerHost property. kaspartus I found a workaround for this timeouts.

Using Xcode 7.3 iOS 9.2 all in Swift none of that horrible Objective C I have been working on this for a while and been around the block three times now. I have tried this post here and it didn't work http://www.mzan.com/article/32199494-alamofire-how-remove-cache.shtml I have also try to use apple documentation but that is so crappy I cannot make sense of if. So what I am doing is making two Alamofire calls to my server. One to test the credentials of the login information to see if the input is right. The second is to download and return the customer information for there viewing. Both are

Hi everyone and thanks in advance for any help providing in understanding in how to convert some NSURLConnection code into the newer NSURLSession. What I am trying to do is to make a POST request to a server, and send a photo base 64 encoded for the key "photo". Below I have an working example written in NSURLConnection and I will like to convert it into NSURLSession. As I read on the apple documentation from what I understood I should use a Data tasks because in my case it is an image and if it is a larger transfer like a video the I should use Upload tasks. Regarding the upload task I have
